I'm glad it opens as getting sky lounge roos is the only way I could get the glass controls.

I was looking forward getting my hand on i5M60, but I don’t know how this thing can compete with comparable pricing model S with 400 plus range( and a functional frunk), i have both bmw and trsla in my garage , and yeah bmw build quality is better but what does determine a functinality of an EV is the range.
If bmw wants to be a serious player with tesla it has to come up with a specific chasis for its EV cars and stop sharing same chassis with its ICE models which results in less room for battery, goofy drive shaft tunnel!, and less luggage space.

I completely agree with this! Placed a pre-order but the low range, the big unknown of how it will drive, and the no massage seat option (this was going to be a commuter car with a 3-4 hour drive between job sites in SoCal traffic) made me rethink and decide to cancel.

No 540?

Just so you're not confused:

Standard moon roof can be opened.
Sky lounge roof cannot.

Sky Lounge Roof
Bathe the cabin in light with the Panoramic moonroof. Its extra-large dual-glass panels include a power slide and lift control, a comfort opening/closing function, a wind deflector to help keep unwanted breezes out, and a power sunshade to shield passengers from excessive glare and heat.

It’s says power slide ….

bowers & Wilkins at 950 / 1400 watts seems like a steal

Hands free highway assistant up to 85mph. I like that. The LCI now is max at 40.

Did you copy paste that from a different model? Because here's one specifically for the 5:

Fixed panoramic glass roof with significantly enlarged viewing area.

A panoramic Sky Lounge roof can be ordered in place of the standard slid-and-tilt moonroof for the first time in any BMW 5 Series sedan. It is designed as a fixed structural module, and connects almost the entire roof surface; extending uninterrupted from just behind the windscreen to almost the rear window. With a length of 33 inches and a width of 32 inches, the viewing area is almost 90 percent larger than that of the standard tilt-and-slide moonroof. This creates a generously light-flooded atmosphere in the interior. If required, an interior sunblind can provide shading of the interior.

This one is confusing. 5 series is supposed to offer massage seat option and rear heated seats, right? It's not available on the configurator.

I put in an order for a pretty much fully loaded i5 M60 (Veganza, no carbon pkg and no comfort seats) for CAD$110k. Given exchange rate it is much cheaper in Canada.

I just can't unsee it.

Are the payment estimators correct? Estimated lease payments are coming out as much as $1000 more than finance payments.

Professionals can code this to the LCI.

I confirmed with my center that there is no option for massage seats currently on offer for the 5 series.

I think it's a glitch, I tried an estimate for 530i and lease number is ridiculous for its MSRP, it was almost $2300.

Another member mentioned similar earlier. I guess its nice BMW is rating more on the colder climate side it seems. So hopefully that's worse case?
