Was just looking through the optionbook for the E60 again. Yes I cannot get enough of it

I wanna ad the heated rear seats to my order. My car is scheduled for arrival at the dealer in week 34/35 2nd or 3rd week of august. I live in the netherlands so that is next to Germany. Does anybody know until when you can change your spec of the car.. It would be really nice to have the heated seats extra (I found some extra money in my account and wanna spend it hehehe)

Option changes from the dealer can be handled up to one week before production week AFAIK

Do you know how long before delivery a new car is produced?

Speaking for Germany: Three days before production starts is the last chance to change options.

I visited my dealer today. Unfortunately I cannot change my order anymore. They checked their computersystem and the program they use has a trafficlight.

Green - everything can be changed
Orange- only minor changes possible
Red - No changes possible, car is almost being produced, is in production or has been produced.

I had the red light!! This made me happy anyway.

I don't feel sorry for myself because I should spend my money in a better way then on my car hehehe The trafficlight saved me 650 euros!!!

Technically the worst investment possible.
Think about it; over the course of 50 years you are likely to spend say a million on your wife. And what do you end up with?

An old woman..




IMHO naturally
