Agree - full IPOD integration or other alternative. I had a HD in my last car (Phatbox) and it was great. To have IDrive to navigate through songs - fast and display the name on the screen - that would be perfect.

My Ride: Arrived 3 June 2005: 2005 545i - Orient Blue, Black interior, Sport, Steptronic, Cold Weather, NAV, Sirius, Logic7, Comfort Seats, Sunshades. What a glorious ride!

Real-time traffic like Acura offers on the RL through its XM radio. Come to think of it, I'd like XM radio instead of this hip-hop-heavy Sirius.

just a by the way... but as a Brit I was over in Boston a few weekends back and thought your Sirius was great - more widespread than our equivalent - Digital Audio, you even have BBC Radio 1 - time shifted of course, but great none the less. In Europe we don't get a Digital option until March 2006 - you've already got Sirius.
