However its a personal thing. Did you manage to see a car in Sophistico grey ? If you didn't I would suggest seeing one before finalising the choice. Look closely at the xarlic paint it looks different in different lights, it can look almost black though sometimes. I am sure whatever you choose will look great.

Re the 677 professional audio, Dad and I listened to a standard F10 and were not that happy, we then listened to a 3 series with the audio upgrade and were very impressed, so he went for 677 after that experience and reading the reviews on the net.
I don't think you will regret it, he gets the car at the end of the month will let you know how it sounds! I certainly wouldn't stick with the standard audio.

Did you consider 534 Air conditioning, automatic with extended features ?
I think it makes it easier to clear the car when its condensated .

Good luck

Cheers

Thank you all for your replies. I didn't think about 534 but I will check it out. I saw the Sophisto Grey yesterday at the dealership. I thought it was very nice but a bit too restrained for me. I'm very tempted to change my order to Deep Sea Blue with Oyster/Black. What do you reckon?
