So that begs the question ... will there be wood and a storage area if you don't order nav? Or no wood and the bin as we have it now. I'm guessing the latter. No wood, same plastic hole as before.
Here's the problem with the storage tray - will it be wood or plastic?? I can't really see a plastic storage tray in the wood. I'd probably give up the storage tray to have the wood - don't use the tray anyways.

I want it. It looks great.. I am gonna ask my dealer to order it and fit it for free since I have so much hassle with my car.

Secondly the windowswitch surroundings should be changed too.. Is it me or do they look the same as they do now.. I don't find them more refined or glossy or luxurious than the ones I already have..

Anyone else think the shifter looks silly now? It needs to have wood inserts like the E39 had. If not that, I think a leather knob would look better than the metal one in the pic...

Shouldn't be a problem.
