Hi,
My first post in this forum. Must say I'm impressed with the quality and content of all users input. Thank you for all the value it has already given me.
I'm going to the dealer on Monday to order my 530i but there are still a few questions that nor this forum nor the dealer has been able to answer:
1) Can I order an automatic "close" as well as "open" trunk feature as on the Touring E60?
2) I will order the Comfort chairs but nor the catalogue nor the dealer can clarify if the comfort chairs contains adjustment for the lower part of the back AND adjustable width of the back rest as default. In the pricelist (no pictures) there are two options that could be added to the comfort chairs, a) active=massage and b) width. However, after a call to the Swedish distributor they said that the width was standard but the active=massage was extra.
3) Your opinion on if I should order it with 17" or 18" wheels. I think 18" look better but I do not want a very bumpy ride.
Thanks.

ACTIVE IS AN ADD OPTION BUT WORTH IT
3) Your opinion on if I should order it with 17" or 18" wheels. I think 18" look better but I do not want a very bumpy ride.
18" SHALL BE NO PROBLEM I WILL HAVE 19" AND IT IS THE SAME
GO AND GET IT!!!?
Thanks.

First of all welcome to E60 forums.
In my opinion, the E61 looks better with larger wheels. I personally would go for the 18's over the 17's. The difference in ride (I have 17's in winter and 18's in summerr) is noticeable but in my opinion, not a negative as far as comfort goes.
