i would definitely get the premium sound option....PLUS the ipod/usb adapter..

the premium sound will add more speakers and alot more amp power...

the ipod is all you need after that!!

i haven't used anything else since getting the vehicle..

thousands of songs on the ipod... and you can control it through the steering wheel controls plus manage playlists via the Idrive screen...

download a quick 99cent itune song, sync it with your ipod, plug it into the port, scroll through the idrive, hit to play and drive....

nothing could be better!
