My Ride: 530i M-sports package, carbon black,Beige leather dakota, Steptronic, active steering, anti-theft alarm, sunblinds for rear window and back seat window, interior and exterior mirror with anti-dazzel function, poplar brown dark, comfort seats, PDC, extended lights package, Hi-Fi loudspeakers, Innovation Package (contains Xenon, Headlight washers, adaptive headlights, Comfort access), automatic air-conditioning, professional radio, individual high gloss satine chrome,Sunroof
Default

Finally i ordered my car. I had decided on the options a lot earlier but i made some last minute changes

So i decided to get the steptronic instead of the SMG because i wanted to be sure for what i get as the dealer couldnt provide me with an SMG car to test-drive.

Also instead of black Dacota i got the beige as it makes the car look a lot roomier when you are sitting inside.

And last but not least is that i thought that a sunroof above wouldnt hurt anyone

So here is the complete order


2007 530i carbon black

M Sport Package
Metallic paint
Beige Dacota leather
Steptronic
Active Steering
Spare wheel
Anti-theft Alarm
Integrated Universal Remote Control
Sun Roof
Sunblinds for rear side windows and elctrical for rear window
Interior and exterior Mirrors with anti-dazzle function
Fine wood trim Poplar Grain Brown
Cup holders
Comfort seats
PDC
Extended Lights Package
HiFi Loudspeaker system
Automatic Air Conditioning
Professional Radio
High Gloss Satin Chrome
Innovation Package (contains Xenon, Headlight washers, adaptive headlights, Comfort access)

And asked the dealer to replace the Runflats with normal tires. He told me that most likely they will change them.

I will get September production and get delivery around middle October. I wanted a 2007 model year

Its gonna be a hard period of 5 months but summer is in the middle so it will make it easier but still...


I want to say thanx to the members of this awesome forum that helped me with many things and taught me so much. Because of you guys i feel that i know most of the important stuff thats going on on the car and thats something that i could never imagine... -knowing more things about the car than the dealer-

I ll say it again THANKS ALL OF YOU

Good for you. Waiting is not too bad. I waited for six months to get the SMG. Stay with the forum and time will pass easy enough.

Congratulations! You won't be sorry.

Congrats; great choice and spec. I don't know how you can wait 5 months; I'm half way through my 8 week wait and I'm like a little kid. 'Is it here yet dad?'

Interesting that your dealer will swap the RFT's. When I asked mine he just 'sold' me on why I should have the RFT's despite the general negative feedback.

Good luck with your wait and enjoy when it comes.
