I was at my dealer this past week to put down a deposit for the 550i.

While there, the salesman told me that he wasnt sure whether the 2007 550i with Logic 7 option would still have the single disc CD slot in the dash, and we'd have to wait and see.

What the hell is he talking about? Does the car still have a 6 disc in the glove box? I was in a hurry and should have asked more questions...

Anyone know what he was talking about?

single CD in dash is standard, no matter Logic 7 is ordered or not. you can order 6 disc CD in the glove box as optional.

But if you want the integrated iPod adapter, you have to pass on the 6-disc changer...

Or if you have Nav you'll have TWO slots - one for CD(inc MP3) and the other for Nav/MP3(only) DVD.

Find a new salesperson. Maybe even a new dealer.

As far as I remember, the DVD drive will also play regular CDs (not just MP3 discs) as well...

I have a 520D M-Sport on order with delivery due on 1st March. I have specified a 6 slot CD stacker. From reading this, do I take it that i wont have i-pod compatability? Both my daughters have i-pods and I will probably end up with one and wanted the flexibility of both multiple CDs and i-pod. Any answers?

Ordering guide very clear as well as all actual results in real cars. Either one (6CDC or MOST Ipod Integration) not both. To be able to have some sembalance of an ipod capability with a chosen 6CDC you would have to use your Aux Input for iPod.

The single disk is standard but as of the September repricing, the US 2007 550i does not have an option for a 6 disk changer in the glove box. You cannot order it with the car as a factory or port install. You would instead have to pay twice as much for a dealer to install it.
