High Def Radio, Auto Tailgate, NAPA Leather, NOT coming until April 2007 production

marcx5 · #1 09-02-2006, 10:53 AM

i really wanted those features right away, as i wanted to order and pay for this car by the end of the year. i really want the high def radio, auto tailgate (maybe not necessary, but nice to have), and NAPA leather will make the car feel much more luxurious.... but for some reason BMW can't get that done in time and you will have to wait until April.

I noticed this info in the previous BMW bulliten post. If anyone has info to the contrary, please let us know...

thanks.

The info posted in this bulletin is correct. I would not want the first batch either.

Okay, that is good to know. That is why I'm waiting for at least 2 years to get all the goodies out and bugs out.

2 years? seems a little long to wait... it's not THAT much different a car from the previous models.
