I wasn't as quick as you I only went in last week and placed the order, they told me they didn't need a deposit at this stage. Which I suppose doesn't bode well

3. Reversing Camera (Why make your life more difficult)
4. Adaptive Headlights (I do a lot of country road driving)
5. Heated Seats (For those cold winter days & general comfort)
Dont think we get those. We literally have 2 or 3 configurations. AT or MT are two of them.........

All of those options are standard in Canada.The only options in Canada are DCT and Convenience Telephony.The Canadian cars are fully loaded,except for those two options and the sunroof,which is not available in Canada.

HK (not really bothered but thinking of residuals)
Manual seats
Heated seats
Lumbar support (a must IMHO)
Folding, dimming mirrors

Sometimes, I wish I didn't live in Maryland where there are rarely cool roads.

Apparently, according to my dealer, the Internet option isn't worth the money - it isn't a full internet experience, just more like a Google search type app ... I didn't spec it for this reason and put the money towards a heated steering wheel instead ...

To be fair, the person I dealt with wasn't too helpful when it came to the options. She basically looked at me as she said each option looking for a response. I've never had a beemer before so I haven't got a clue how to spec it! I figured for £95 it might be worth a punt, but I've got a long time before mine goes to build to change my mind.

Any thoughts on the HK vs advanced speaker setup?

Absolutely no idea, I hadn't noticed until you pointed it out! Didn't think I'd been around long enough to be considered a disreputable character

HK every day of the week, both for enjoyment and resale.
