Yep, exactly the 2 items I will be retrofitting.

Different design for driver and passenger door. I like ours better.

BMW Germany preview site: http://www.bmw.com/de/de/index_highend_pop...d/xml/popup.xml
Looks very nice. LED taillights, redone doors and window controls (very E90'ish), new transmission and iDrive presets(like the X5's). Seems a confirmation of the rumors.
I did not see anything in what I've seen so far that the 535i turbo will be offered however. Only the 535d (diesel, not in the US) is mentioned. Did I miss something?

The English site makes it much easier to understand (especially since I do not speak German!).
The 6-speed sports autonmatic transmission with paddle shifters is optional (suggesting that the older the Steptronic will be standard). It's also not available "from" June 2007, so the first ones out won't have that.
I'd sure like to see pricing on this and other available options. I hope US dealers get the information soon.

The LED tail lights. Is it just me or does the preview on the interactive site show only LED's for the turn indicator and not the brakes? Can anyone confirm that the LED's covers the brake function along with the turn indicator..

So in EU no 535i but 540i as mentioned elsewhere?
Oh, ye non-believers.
Looks like silver-grey, titanium-grey, mystic blue, olivin and amethyst are "gone"

286ps 535d seems to be just the ticket for me!
