Sweet looking beast! I like the interior leather/trim combo.

BTW, did the seller tell you it was fully loaded besides AC seats? And by AC do you mean air conditioned seats? From the looks of the pictures, it looks like you're missing some other features. Please note that I'm not trying to knock you or your car. Just want to make sure someone didn't lie to you and you know what you bought.
Thanks, but I came to the conclusion myself, and yes I meant Air Conditioned seats. What do you think is missing from the car? It has:
-SAT Radio
-Comfort Access
-HUD
-Active seats
-Heated Rear seats
-Fold down rear seats
-Rear sunshades
-Full leather interior
-Enhanced Premium Audio
-etc

Hmm...I might be wrong then. You had stated that you had Extended Leather package but I see that you have Full Leather. Looks like you're just missing the perforated merino leather and front ventilated seats (AC seats). You probably also have rear side airbags but just didn't list it.

Is there a difference between extended Leather and full leather? I know that you only get the suede headliner if you get the most expensive leather option. So my car has that. Also, you only get the perforated leather if you get the AC seats (thus they are 1 option, not 2 separate ones).
And, lastly I just went to the garage and saw that I do have the rear side impact airbags. So I was correct in saying that the car is fully loaded except AC seats

I'm somewhat glad that it doesn't have the AC seats. I've sat in those and they are not as supportive as the active seats. And, to be honest I can't even tell when the seats are being cooled, I feel no difference...lol

Hmm...on my option sheet, the perforated merino leather (full leather) and front ventilated seats were listed separately as two different options.

When you say active seats, you mean multi-function seats where the seat bolsters can be set to move to hold you in place during cornering right?

You're right about the cooling or ventilating feature, I don't really feel it at all either. haha

Congrats on the new ride. It's nice to see another recent convert - we're the worst kind because we can't stop talking about what a great machine the M5 is.

Don't you love the full leather interior?

I think the non-cooled seats look a lot better too. More sporty.
