Congrats to a great looking car. Can't wait for more pics and reviews of the engine and 8sp gearbox.
I actually changed my order on the F11 so now it's an Imperial Blue 520dT with sports automatic, dynamic dampers, Sports seats, HiFi Professional, 18" wheels etc. Hopefully I will be able to do a test drive in an F10 520d at the dealer soon to try out the engine.

Two small details I have noted:
1. On the left side of the steering wheel, the topmost button is labeled LIM (which actually means GLUE in Swedish
). The function doesn't seem to be documented in the owners manual. By pushing the button you activate a Speed Limiter. With LIM activated the function will limit the speed to the setting I've made - it is not a speed warning, the car just won't go any faster than the LIM setting, even if I push the throttle....
2. My iPhone now is charged through the USB connector with the iPhone adapter cable that i kept from my old car.
The iPhone (a 3Gs with iOS4) still protests though, saying that "This is not a approved accessory...".
Now it's also very easy to find the music you want to listen to. iDrive now has a search function.
...thats all for now.

I agree, the shadow line looks great. I wish I had ordered in for mine, which comes TOMORROW!

Congratulations Scandic24, you have a really cool set of wheels! I am looking forward to more photographs and your impressions of the car in general, the steering in particular since it has received so much criticism.
