I have a 545 six-speed and it comes with the sports package and xenons.? The only other options I have are premium sound and the cold weather package.?

At first I wish I got NAV, PDC and lumbar, but am now happy that I saved the money.? I haven't used the cold weather package once since owning the car and kind of wish I passed on premium sound and got something aftermarket instead.? Extra options are nice, but they don't really add or take away from the car that much.?

I say save some money on options and spend it on mods instead.
BTW, how do you delete posts?

I regret not getting Nav, Satellite and phone because none were available when I ordered. I'm still hoping for a retrofit.

Are there people who regret not having the sunroof. I had it on my wishlist but I am gonna delete it because the money I get from the insurance for my old car is 3,500 euro lower than expected.

I drove a car with the sunroof and this is the first option for me to delete because I don't know how much I will use it and I am choosing the light interior so it won't be dark in the car.

HUD, navigation and logic 7 are my regrets. Ah well, there is next year when I trade this little sucker in for the 645ci.

Not yet received the car so the option I wish I'd have gotten is the one that instantly delivers your within 14 minutes of paying for it.

Even then, not sure I could have waited 13 and 1/2 minutes of that.
