Hi everyone,
Back in 2006 I ordered my first BMW 2007 525i pretty basic options ( premium pkg, cold weather pkg, nav, 6 MT) and it has been a great experience driving it with no problems. My lease is coming to an end in June so yesterday I just placed an order on
a 2010 535i
I was trying to minimize cost as much as possible without having to sacrifice the features that I wanted.
Following is my specs.
2010 535i
Deep Sea Blue metallic
Natural Brown Dakota leather (included in pp)
Cold weather pkg
Navigation
Premium pkg
Sports Pkg
Sport Automatic Transmission ( according to my CA its available and she was able to enter in the order. But she will double check on Monday with BMW and let me know. If they can't be ordered without the M-sport then I will keep it as 6 speed MT )
Value pkg ( include ipod, usb adapter )
Bamboo Anthracite wood trim
I've heard on Bimmerfest forums that the auto sport trans with paddle shifters are no longer available to order unless you add the M-sport pkg but my CA says that she could add it to the order so we will see how that works out
Now for the long wait
I will post pics when I take delivery.

That's a great spec. I'd not heard that SAT was limited to M-Sport models so I think you'll be able to get it, and it is indeed well worth it.
