Power adjustable, heated, folding, body-color side-view mirrors are standard equipment on all 5-Series models.

The 2013 535i Premium Package includes only the Power Tailgate, Comfort Access, and Sirius Radio. To me, Premium is worth it for both the Power Tailgate and Comfort Access. Even with CA, I still touch the door ridges on my car every time I walk away to both ensure the vehicle is locked, and to simultaneously fold the mirrors (which I coded the car to do). It's just very convenient to never have to use the Fob.

However, if I had a very limited amount of money to spend on options, I would forgo the $1500 Premium Package and instead get the PDC Sensors for $750, and the Backup Camera for $400, and if music sound quality means anything to you, the Premium hi-fi system is worth the extra $875. Those three can be had for $2025, or $1625 without the Backup Camera, and are worth more to me than the Power Tailgate, Comfort Access, and Sirius Radio combined for $1500.
