I think your dealer can print your out a list of your options.

That site will not give options list, i've tried it.
For free , i don't know. I think somebody used to do it in a bmw forum but you have to have a search on that.
Unfortunately i paid ?1 per minute on BMW customer services to tell me absolutely nothing more than the basic stuff on the car. They said
the only option was the leather which is ... bull. The only site i managed to get a proper and very detailed order option list was http://www.bmw-options-vin-decoder.com but you have to pay $9.99 for it.

Right next to the knooter valve so next time your grease it with some monkey snot you can jot it down and do a popular VIN surge.

Good luck
