Ordering a 535Xi with an added bonus!

kabalm18 · 05-03-2011, 06:09 PM

Hey guys!

I am ordering a 535xi for the wife...here are the specs:

AW
Sports PKG
Premium PKG
Heated Front Seats
Sport Automatic Trans
Navigation
Anthracite headliner
Cinnamon Brown with dark wood

Is there anything I am going to miss out on? I wasn't going to order the Nav but the dealer said you had to right now because of the disaster in Japan. Something about a shortage on a chip that allows you to not have the Nav. Is this true?

Oh well, I am glad I was "forced" to add this option.

Here is the bonus! They had an allocation for July build for the 1M so I put a deposit down on that also.

So my wife gets to drive around in luxury, while I get to run around in the fun car. Too bad my wife doesnt know how to drive a 6MT.

I would order the head up display. Once you have it you don't want a car without it.

I have a cin brown with anthracite wood and anthracite headliner (deep sea blue) so nice choice in colors.

Agree with head up display. beautiful color, neat extra, very practical, not sure how I got along without it. if you have back seat passengers, the 4 zone climate control and rear heated seats are also nice.
