Wow, about two weeks from being built to delivery. VERY nice.
I'm excited about this news. Mine was built on 02/18.
545, can you please post some pictures?

I am an eastcoaster so my delivery was pretty quick. I ordered 19" style 125 rims through BMW and should get them wednesday. I will post the picks once they are on. The orient blue looks even better than I expected.

Can you please do me a favor? The manual indicates that you can say "options" or something like that and it will list what voice commands are available. Do you have time to list some of those? I think the voice commands thing is one of the coolest features.
Also, rear reflectors in or black plugs? I keep hearing that the rear reflectors are coming to the US market.
BTW, I almost bought Orient. In fact, I originally ordered it. I love the color. I just wanted a change from my current car (Navy blue Boxster).

At this point I only control the radio with the voice commands. I press the voice command button on the steering wheel and say "radio" then I say frequency 100 point 5, any it goes to 100.5 fm. I haven't tried saying "options" but will tonight.
I liked black too. My last car was a 540i sport 6spd in jet black. I was ready for a change so I went with the orient. You can't go wrong with either color.

Saw this post from the Roadfly forum...
Took delivery of my 530i on Saturday 2/28 - built 2/8. The car was delivered into Westchester, NY - NAV/Logic 7/Auto/Shades/Prem/Xenon/Cold.
The car came WITH the red reflectors - no black plugs.
Voice command works perfectly - phone to come soon as eject box for CPT9000 has been redesigned slightly and is due in next week.
I-drive took 20 minutes to master - NAV is absolutely great!
All going very well so far - no issues whatsoever (except piece of front air dam missing - dealer pulled piece from other instock 530).
