Does anyone have an ordering guide for 530i?

Built on BMW.de. It has the color code Fire Red Metallic P0C68 available. Any idea when that will be available on the USA site?

After sitting in an i5 for an extended amount of time, I can confirm that additional seat adjustments are made through iDrive, and not through the seat controls. As I was playing with the seats, I was like, no way it didn't have this or that adjustment. Sure enough, it was in some menu somewhere. The manual was posted in one of the sticky threads. Look at page 105.

Since we are all ordering a car that has not officially arrived at dealers yet, we are going to continue to have some confusion about what is what.

have they dropped the active head restraints that traditionally have come with the comfort / multi contour seats of recent years?

Nice! I like the color and the wheels. I’d really like to get those 19” wheels for better ride and pothole protection but waiting to see how they look on the car in person. Somehow the G60 looks better with larger wheels though.

True.
With 21 inch wheels it looks really good. But too hard for me and too expensive with an additional charge of €2,590.
Unfortunately the roads in my area are not the best. That's why I took the M package with standard suspension.

Understandable you wouldn't choose that option. Roads in parts of the US can be similar, and why I opted for 19" wheels on my G30. In the US the 20" wheels are +$800 and the 21" wheels are +$1800 from the base price. I do like the design of the 935M 19" wheels.
