My Ride: 11 550i Sophisto Gray/Oyster Black/Anthracite, Sprt Trns, DHP, IAS, SP, PP1, PP2, CWP, HUD, DAP, AVSP, SF RS, CA, ACC - Euro Del
On the 550 I ordered the following packages: Sport, Dynamic Handling, Premium 2, Driver Assistance, Cold Weather, and Convenience. I also ordered the sport automatic transmission, HUD, split folding rear seats, active cruise control, integral active steering, smart phone integration. It will be Space Grey Metallic, Venetian Beige Dakota Leather, Dark Wood Trim, and the Anthracite Headliner. If the beige headliner is available in the US, I'll possibly get that in lieu of the Anthracite Headliner. I am doing Euro Delivery with a delivery date of July 13 at the BMW Welt.
I got a great deal, actually better than I had anticipated. Plus no nonsense and silly games. F10 pricing and lease rates will be out by the end of this month according an internal BMW document. If the pricing or rates aren't quite what I am looking for, I'll modify my order at that time.

Sounds fine to me. I should have it by September 5th back in the US.
It is a leased car so I am not going to do a ECU reflash.

If I do end up getting a 550 rather than a M5, I think that an ECU reflash will be far too tempting to pass up. A good one should bring the horsepower up into the 500 range given that they will be starting off with 400 bhp and twin turbos.
