Hi Wolverine. So the test drive did the job!!! Piano black is great; especially on a lighter colored car.
I'm still mulling over my choice between the M5 and M6. Head tells me to go for the 5 but heart says the 6. Anyway, we've still not got the finalised pricing for the M6 so I've gotta wait a while longer.

My car is 'code 112' whatever that is, and I need to specify my options. The car is being built in September for October delivery. I ordered Silverstone/Silverstone full leather w/ pretty much all options.
The one thing they are checking is whether I can get piano black through BMW Individual. If I can't I'll just go with the aluminum. They're also looking into just getting the trim pieces and installing them after delivery.
Wow - I'm still in shock.

261 Rear-Airbags is $385
322-Comfort Access is $1,000
416- Power Rear Sunshades with Manual Side Window Shades is $575
465 - Fold Down Rear Seats is $475
610 - Heads Up Display is $1,000
X2xx/X3xx - Full Leather Interior w/Alcantara Roofliner is $3,500
I bypassed M-multi function seat and active ventilated seat as those adds extra weight. Plus i rarely use E55's dynamic and ventilated seat.

[/quote]Here's my full spec sheet:
My colors/trim are Silverstone/Silverstone/Aluminum.
I have a list price of $81,200, and I ordered all the options:
261 Rear-Airbags is $385
322-Comfort Access is $1,000
416- Power Rear Sunshades with Manual Side Window Shades is $575
4MA - M Multifunction Seatsd with Active Width Adjustment is $1,900
453 - Seat Ventiliation is $800
465 - Fold Down Rear Seats is $475
496 - Rear Seat Heating is $350
610 - Heads Up Display is $1,000
655 - Sirius Satellite Radio is $595
X2xx/X3xx - Full Leather Interior w/Alcantara Roofliner is $3,500
Gives a price of $91,780
Gas Guzzler Tax is $3,000
Destination is $695
For a total of $95,475. Not bad for the best car on the planet!!
I've asked to get Piano Black trim through Individual. If it's not available, I'll take the aluminum trim and either stick with it, or order the Piano Black trim separately and have it installed here.
My build week is 37, the third week of September, for a delivery 4 weeks later. I'm starting to get impatient already.

My Ride: Arrived 3 June 2005: 2005 545i - Orient Blue, Black interior, Sport, Steptronic, Cold Weather, NAV, Sirius, Logic7, Comfort Seats, Sunshades. What a glorious ride!
Wolverine, I envy you your great new car! 
Should be a great trip north. Which route do you take? I75 would be quickest I guess but no "fun spots" if you catch my drift. Even if you have to keep the dust cover on the engine the handling will still be eye-popping. Man, that new car will be almost as fast as Ted Ginn Jr. blowing past the Wolverine linebackers.

My is a week ahead of you. Week 36. I believe DEREKFSU is being build in the same week as mine. It looks like BMW is batching similar color together. It appears that a lot of people has ordered silver grey.
What is your production number??

Did you get a free key chain???
It seems that I am the only one that got a free keychain directly from BMW.
Anyway, I talked to BMWNA yesterday. It seems that my production week got pushed out from week 36 to week 37. Production date will be known next week.
It looks like our cars are schedule to be built starting week of 9/11/05.
I would think our cars should leave port by end of september. You will probably get yours 3-4 weeks after that (making it late october delivery).
I am probably looking at late october to mid november for delivery.
