IF YOU HAD TO CHOOSE ONLY TWO OPTIONS FOR YOUR E60 WHAT WOULD THEY BE. NOTWITHSTANDING THAT THERE MAY BE SOME REGIONAL DIFFERENCES IN STANDARD SPECS I WONDER WOULD LEATHER WIN OUT OVER HUD OR MSPORT PACKAGE OVER AUTO, LEATHER AND SUNROOF.
I KNOW THAT IN MY CASE THE MSPORT PACKAGE WITH UPGRADE TO FULL LEATHER REPRESENTED THE BEST WAY TO SPEND EUR10K ON OPTIONS IMHO. MAYBE YOU THINK DIFFERENT. HOW WOULD YOU HAVE SPENT THIS EUR10K / USD13500

M Sport package definitely. Leather or HUD? Tough one, but in the end I would pick HUD.

leather and sat nav.
the cloth on my car isnt as bad as I expected tho.
Msport pakage, to me, apart from the wheels, is just a bit of insubstatial 'froth'. The honeycomb alu on the msport dash looks like an amateur customiser stuck it on - its too prominent.
cheers
