I actually have keyless go. Its amazing. Credit size card put in your wallet. Walk up to your car. Pull on the door handle and it unlocks. Press a button and it goes. Not a big deal to push a button to close the lock. Saves you from scratching your steering column when your in a rush to start the car. Just my 2 cents.

Can you still press the button on the key to lock/unlock doors if you dont want to use the handle?

As for MY issue, my dealer is telling me that 06 production starts April 1 and delivery to the floor(dealer) will be mid/end May. He could not give me any lease rates on a 06 530i because he said the current lease rates only apply to 05 models and that BMW hasnt given them 06 pricing or lease rates.

I'm being told that if I order now, production will start April 1 and the car will be in my hands mid/end May.

Iceman, I hear what you are saying but looking at this MY issue your way means the dealer is trying to sell me a MY05 530 that I will pay MY06 price and lease rates for.

I told him I needed the car by mid July, he is telling me I can order NOW but a price can't be negociated until he has official MY06 pricing and lease rates in hand.

fyi, MB has ugraded their E320 221hp engine to a E350 with 268hp.

It is being sold right now as a MY2006. Although BMW is a bit behind compaired to MB, BMW seems to be taking the same approach.

Can you put the /// back. It was easy to recognize you.

So I take it you traded in the ///M for the 545? M roadster? or was it the ///M shoe?

///M Shoe and it's still in the garage. It's a 2002 Steel Grey with the M3's S54 motor. Might be selling it though. I go by "///M Rakete" on the M Coupe boards.

No. The price is correct because it's a new/different engine.
