Opinions needed, Colors/Options for 35d

Test drove a 2010X5 35D a few weeks ago......and to say the least, was totally impressed......have been studying the various options and would like to hear opinions. Here is where I am so far:

Premium Package
Rear Climate
Technology
Multi Contour Seats
Roof Rails
Smart Phone
I Pod
Sat Radio
Space Saver Spare

On the bubble:
Premium Sound: wife has a 535 with premium, and I think it sounds great, but have no need for dvd changer.....have also had a 530 in the past with standard radio....in my opinion a stepdown from the premium. I think I would like the premium....but it hard to justify the differential cost.

Cold Weather Package or just heated front seats. Heated steering would be nice, but have little need for heated rear seats. But....who knows?

Sport Activity Package: Don't really want the adaptive drive, as we have a sport package on a 535...gives us plenty of fun........but was wondering if 19" give a more aggressive look vs 18", and is it worth the differential. I guess you get the "shiny" shadowline trim vs. the matte/black rubber trim, and the anthracite headliner, but that complicates the "two tone" look I have listed below......

Colors: Really struggling here: It is Space Gray with a couple of interior options, vs. Platinum Bronze.

Space Gray/Sand Beige. Is that too much contrast? Also.....is that a contrasting headliner (two tone)

Space Gray/Black. Had black on black with last 530. Don't know. I think the headliner is gray with this setup....and has a two tone line on pillar. Is that right?

Platinum Bronze/Sand Beige. Have been back and forth on this one. It looks great to me sometimes....and at others.....I don't like the gold tone. At least gold to me. Just don't know.

Was at the dealer twice yesterday....looking at various color combo's....and just can't nail it down.

Any comments would be appreciated.
