Hi.
Yesterday, I picked up my car.
Black 2005 545i SMG. : - )

Please advice me anyone!

1. Is my car with Logic 7?
I saw someone's post that if there is a speaker in the center dash board, it is Logic 7. Also in the I-Drive menu, there is a Surround? option...
Ok, my car, there is a speaker in the center of the dash board. But I simply can not find surround option in the I-Drive menu...

2. DVD CD.
The car did not come with Navigation DVD. Where can I purchase them?
How much is it?

Thank you guys!

Oh..one more thing....how can I find color code of my car?

For Navigation DVD, I would try Ebay or Craigslist for less expensive. Or you can get it from Navteq website or BMW dealer, but I think that costs a bit more.

If you have logic7, in the entertainment menus of your idrive you will have options for "theater or concert hall" modes. Also it will say logic7.

The DVD is specific to your location. Are you in North America, Europe, etc? You did not put that in your profile. If you need a European DVD, I can help. Just send me a PM. Otherwise the recommendation to go to ebay, craigslist, or the dealer is fine.

The color code is located on a plate under the hood of your car on the passenger side of the engine bay. It will list the color and paint code.

Congratulations on your new ride and welcome to the forum.

As I have been shopping for my car I have seen the terminology "Premium Sound" everywhere. I have decided it's salesspeak for non-option sound system!

Congrats with the great car

You probably have the Hifi option (code# 676). The speaker place in the centre is probably empty.

Lot's of audio upgrade possibilities on this forum!
