Congratulations!

I like my comfort access however, if my next car is without it I can get by without it. I have to remember to keep the key out of my pocket when washing the car as the doors lock and unlock while washing and hosing the car. I'm now touching the door handles of my other cars expecting them to unlock too!

HD radio is cool to when you have reception- you'll like the improved audio.

Sigh... ETA Newark 6/5 can't get here any faster

By the way has anyone taken delivery of a 2010 535i or 550i with SAT w/ paddle shifters?
From the BMW website it looks like the paddles are all metal and no more leather inserts.

Congrats!!!!! All a BMW really needs is the Sports Package. Everything else is personal taste. However, Sports Package is a must.

Enjoy it!

I didn't want to wait for the first year F10 since most likely there will be some bugs that needs to be worked out, thats how it usually works.
So I'll grab the F10 once I see them in person and if I like them on their 2nd or 3rd year production.
Congrats on your order!! I remember the day I placed my '08 order... 'bout wet my pants waiting for it to arrive! I still love it after 15 months. No serious issues to report.

BTW... its kind of ironic your statement about giving the F10 some time to "mature". The 535i with the N54 Twin Turbo engine has now been in production for 3 model years - all the way back to 2007, and still BMW cannot get the High Pressure Fuel Pump issues resolved. Hopefully yours will be OK, though.

I couldn't agree more. For the non-X cars, the Sports Package, and its suspension, really carves out a major difference in ride/handling between BMW and the "competition".

Nope, this would be the last production run for the E60's until they start rolling out the F10. I suspect they will have it as MY2011.

Absolutely agree, I can't see myself buying the first year of ANY model, let them work the bugs out first (I do have 2005 for that reason). I will definitely look into the F10 but probably not until MY2012.

Congrats on the new ride, enjoy and definitely post pics when you can.
