I hear ya Ruf930....I am still kicking myself for not getting Logic 7, and it is not a retrofit option. Oh well, just do as I do and enjoy all of the positive attributes you did order and enjoy your new ride. One accessory you may want to look into ASAP are the all season floor mats. Especially since it is the family car.

BTW, what options do you regret not getting the most???

All in all though - you live and you learn.....congratulations on your new car. I'm sure there will be a lot of people who will be envious regardless!

I was sitting in the car with my wife showing her how to navigate the i-drive, etc...? My two year old son is standing in the back seat behind us...? I hear him hiccup and then...? EARRRLLLL.? All over the backseat and floor.

I don't know if it was the new car smell or what.? But it took me 45 minutes to clean all that S$%@ out of there.? The floor mats are thrash now.? Less then 24 hours of ownership.? I guess you can say he christened it.

Congratulations on your new car.

I too have regretted not getting more options - Logic7, NAV and heated rear seats. I'm sure I'll think of more when I get a new one!
