Two questions. Would you post more pictures of your interior. I'd like to see more of the Individual seats.
Also, how does the ride and handling compare with a regular 5 series with sport suspension?

Well after a total 5 month wait (had to wait for wk9
) I finally got my 535d sport this weekend.
My Pics
Interior is about the nicest I've ever had, the orange glow works really well with the polar grey leather. The Piano gloss is superb also -really deep finish. The leather tran tunnel looks nice, the 2 tone doors look really nice, and the stitchwork is perfect. Overall I would say that despite the fact I know it's gonna be a bitch to maintain I love it
Car is exactly as many other 535d owners have described, so I won't bore you wih the same old. The rear wing is really nice and subtle without being invisible. The ride on the Goodyear runflats is way better then my e46 M3 cab on 19"s so I currently don't see what all the fuss is about.
it has been mentioned before, but for the benefit of anyone getting an e60 soon COMFORT SEATS & LOGIC 7 are fantastic !!!

Is it possible to have the piano black retro fitted. I would have chosen it but was told it was only available as part of a package.
Perhaps someone knows of a specialist company who can supply

I think you need the VIN from an Individual specced car to order the parts seperately

No idea if anyone else supplies it...
