Today I picked up my new 545i! Wonderful car. Idrive really not hard to learn, I got it in about 15 mins. Voice commands work very well and BMW phone works very well too!
I am a little suprised that they do not give you a list of all possibe voice commands. I called BMWNA and are looking into it for me!
Active steering is very easy to get use to. AFter a short period you forget about it and just drive.
Also strange that thr voice commads are in a male voice. My 330ci had a womens voice.
After 1st day, Very happy!

Post some pic, please. Especially with the spoiler.
Tekor, the question of the spoiler has come up on several other BMW boards and my conclusion is: it's your car, do as you like. Since you have to wake up everymorning and look at it, if you like it, do it.

I will take pictures today since the weather here in north Jersey is better today.
Love the comforts seats, can't imagine being any better!
I received the most compliments from everybody about the rear spoiler! Looks great. Really makes the back look different.
One small problem, the voice commands work great execpt one area. The BMW phone, It does not recognize the "store Name" command, They are calling for me but they think it is a software update.
Funny how it does everything else like control radio,climate ..ect.
I did test drive 530 sports package there is a different more solid feel to this one.
Hud loks great too. Really easy to see without distractions.
Pictures to come....
