My Ride: 2011 520dA coming up.
Since two weeks now i'm driving a 535d Touring, it has 3000 k's on by now.
Coming from a Mercedes 2002 E220CDI this is something completely different!
Totally different car i must say, positive though. MUCH more power, better handling, a steering wheel with feeling in it, better sounds from under the hood, and i hope better reliability.
Standard nuisances like sounds from the doors, trunk, front wheels and a rollo that won't open up, a radio that doesn't display rds, a cd player that doesn't display track names etc. also came as standard on my car.
However, I can't be bothered, these sounds will be taken care of and when the rollo doesn't open up i simply leave it open.
I can't be bothered because driving pleasure is unequaled by any car i've previously owned!
I keep inviting friends just to give this car a try and everybody without any single exception gets a big grin on his face as soon as they press the pedal!
This number of smiles a mile can for only some part be equaled in my wifes mini cooper but only in it's own special way.
included a picture of mine at the dealer and one from the inside and from the best toy this car owns: auxilary input for my Ipod + 12V

If not, how much for installation?

[/quote]No, it is not standard.
Your dealer can install it for you (software update needed)
They asked about ?250 including the 12v
If you need more information, just do a search in the forum.
There's been several topics about the aux input.
