Nice interior! 
But I have to ask, is there any "padded" feel to it, I know it can't be just a solid piece of leather going across there?

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.
Huh, well I add a note to my previous statement.....If you see some stitching, double check for leather
And that is a damn nice interior. White leather, piano black trim AND leather dash/door panels!! I'll have to look into this for my next BMW

I have the full Merino Leather Package in my M5 and people always make a comment how nice the dash is when they notice all the leather and the stiching. Is it worth the extra $7K? Probably not, but it looks very nice.

My Ride: 545I SMG
I find that Woolite at a 8:1 or 6:1 ratio works really good for keeping my leather looking like new. Additionally I condition the leather with BMWs leather conditioner and have had great results with this setup. In fact, I just detailed a CL500 and I couldn't believe the difference it made in preserving the original leather color.
