O8E60,
You guys don't get a break on price but heck BMWCA really know how to put option packages together.
M-sport package and carbon-black, non-RFT w/ sport package on 535i, bravo dude.
Is it the french culture thing ?

BMWNA thinks we here in the USA just like vanilla ice cream or what.

Can you guys tell me more about the M Sport package? I don't see anything on the bmwusa.com website for the 535.

Is that available only on custom order 535i's from any dealership? What is the package price? And does it look as good as the new 550i sport package kit?

it should look exactly the same. I originally ordered it on my 535 to be installed at the port, but supposedly they stopped doing this because there were too many electronics involved (i.e. PDC, night vision, etc.)..dealers can install the option for you for about $4K.

C...that's EXACTLY what I did (I think I even memorzied it)

...we must never meet

Same here, I wish they had another 5 series brochure at this point. I'm not sure if it helps the waiting or not - err, probably not. The wait is tough and I keep second guessing the options, and colors I ordered

Hi, I am new here from Canada. I just placed order on a 2008 535i. Carbon black on black, sport automatic, M package, premium package, tech package, and USB. I am now anticipating a end of April delivery. Like to know your waiting time for your rides...

Mine took 6 weeks (east coast US).

HPIA4v2,

Why don't u check out bmw.ca and you will know what it is. It's the same body kit that on the 550i. Luckily we can get the M-package for 535 in Canada but I guess you guys can't in the states... That's too bad.

Congrats!!
I can't wait that long for a car. I'll think about the car day and night until the day I pick it up.
Can you find the same one you like in the dealer??

Unfortunately, they don't have one that's got this much options in car...
