Hello skierdoc

I like a dark blue car as well, but Black is very cool.

A must is the Comfort Ventilated Seats in Beige Nasca Leather.
Be very careful that the trims matches with the interior.
Style is important!

Get it as a M sport version with 19" wheels!

Logic7 is also a must.

The rest of the extras are all OK.

 

I currently have a 2004 530i Orient Blue - which is very similar (i think almost exactly the same) as the current Monaco Blue. I'm up for trying something different - thus the Neptune Blue.

The Logic 7 has now been replaced by the Premium Sound System.

I am definitely getting the comfort seats - and am still thinking about the Ventilated Seats.

Thanks again for the suggestions!

 

Sounds very similar to my car that is currently in production with a May 4th European delivery.

I wasn't sure about the anthracite headliner either. I was planning on upgrading the wheels and getting the aerodynamic package after US delivery since when I originally placed the order the M sport package hadn't been released yet. It was a no brainer for me since it saved me a ton of money.

The aerodynamic package really makes a huge difference in the look of the car.

Try out the sports auto transmission if you get a chance. I absolutely fell in love with it. So much so that I changed my original order of a 535xi to a 535i so I could get the paddle shifters.

You should get HD radio for free when ordering Navigation.

The cold weather package is only $230(invoice) more than the heated front seats.

I just test drove an X6 the other day to try out the HUD. It had ventilated seats. I had forgotten how cool the seats really are. There are very few cars that have the option. It made an incredible difference.
