After two months waiting I now have an idea how my E61 will look like, as the configurator is updated with the new colours.

I would really appreciate comments from you all; the idea was to have a A68 Platinum Grey with natural brown leather, as my fist choice disappeared with the introduction of the LCI; A08 Silver Grey with Light brown leather...

It looks really nice.

I am also interested in configure my car with the configurator but it wasn't ready yet. Where did you do yours?

I used the one on bmw.de. The Swedish one was updated to 90%, but the pictures refused to load. That's why "my car" has a German licence plate...

Although I need to see the color of the car myself to give an unbiased opinion about it, the first glance gives a nice impression (although the color is a bit too blue-isch?) Anyway, maybe you want to go with the roof rails, because I think that a Touring without roof rails looks a bit "bald".

And what about a wood trim to contrast the brown leather a bit more?
(btw, the German configurator doesn't show any changes in wood trim yet)

Rails are included in the Advantage package, so that's in even though not in the picture... And I agree, the colours look strange in the "Konfigurator". I've only seen a colour sample at the dealer's but it loooked nice. It's like the Titangrau but with less "green" in it. What's nice though is that the dealer got inspired by my order and have ordered a LCI 535dE61 in Platinagrau and with natural leather as a demo-car. So guess what I will be doing on the 24 March!

But I think I stick with the brushed aluminium - I have it today in my E91 and I like it!

Oh yeah, and the automatic is wrong in the pic - I've ordered the 2TB sport automatic. But that's not "configurable" at present...

I agree. Glad to see its orderable with the M-Sport pack. Titan-grau was not an option, only the Silver-Grey.
The interior combo is also a great mix of stylish and sport.
