You must have some great roads to unwind the car on. Thats what I miss here in Los Angeles. I want to drive!!!!

BTW. What are the threshold levels for graduating from Junior member to Member, then on to addict. Just curious.

To become an addict you must reach 2,500 posts. It will let you change your statues to what ever. You must reach 1000 to become a specialist.

great roads? only one i can think of. it's called "round top". but other than that, very boring .

kigerka is right, 2,500 posts to become an addict and so far only iceman is an addict <_<. but i'm getting there . i'm not too sure about from junior to member. i'm guessing 0-10 is newbie, 11-20 or 30 is junior, and after that is member . you better ask lomag or das .

I would like BMW to make the grey plastic surround of the air and climate controls out of wodd as well.

I think it would look good coming down from the dash all the way to the center console in wood, especially with a wood shift knob and e-brake.

I wouldn't like that. It would break the line of the dash board.

As for me I wud not mind breaking this dashboard line. All in all I am not impressed by it anyway(non BMW driver-oriented, too much cheep plastic). Just my 2 cents.
But Hormazd probably is right for BMW designers reasoning to make just one wood piece on a two-piece part. Then I'm afraid we can forget to dream about it and buy the current upgrade for our MY2004. BTW it cud be interesting to have a POLL whether we wud like to have evrth in WOOD or not.

For those of you that want the wood all over, I am sure that after marketers will be making kits within the year. Just hang in there.
