New 520d

Hi, new member here.

Im thinking of replacing my current E60 525d with a new F10. I was thinking of getting a 523i as i wanted to go back to a petrol but by looking at the spec, it seems pointless. Its slower than the 520d and its almost £3000 more expensive.

So im thinking of also getting the following options.

mettalic paint - £640.00
18" alloys - £1,410.00
Visibility package - £1210
Media package - BMW Professional - £1960
Sport Steering Wheel - £110
Sport automatic transmission - £1605
Sport seats - £400
Seat heating, front - £300
Park Assist - £560
Loudspeaker system - BMW Business - £405
USB interface - £205
Exterior trim, High-gloss Shadowline - £285

What do you think, any reccomendations? Im not sure about the visibility pack, the only reason im going for it as it includes xenons which looks really nice.

Does anyone know when the M Sport spec is being released?

Scott27 is a well known BMW insider who's posts tend to be solid.

Also BMW UK has sold M-Sport versions of most models within 6-12 months of initial lauch, since the E90 in 2005. For example the M-Sport 7 is already available! So I think its solid. The best way to check, is to put preasure on your dealer. That's what I will do next. Keep checking this site as pics will appear here early on. Keep in mind the US normally sees M-Sport much later, so posters from the US will not be expecting the M-Sport F10 soon.
