I noticed starting a few days ago that you can't configure any of the E60s (including M5) on the USA site. All other BMW models can be configured (still in the MY08 version, of course.) I tried two different browsers (Firefox and then Safari.) I realize they will be changing over to MY09 soon, but I just wonder what's up with the E60s. Why are just those models not working on the site? Anybody else try it (maybe using IE)....?

Tried with IE and Mozilla: not able able to configure. Same as you. I wonder if they are in the process of upgrading for the '09 models to configured online/site maintenance.

+1, They are undergoing the change. Happens yearly about this time. When you go back and it does work you may see 2008 for a day or so, then they all will be 2009!!!!

That's what I figured. But I thought it odd that it's only the E60s that were not working. I assumed they'd upload the new stuff all at once.

I agree, that is weird. Who knows. I dont know why they still have the X3 and Z4 up, cause they are out of production.
