At the end worth it, but some tense moments while at it.

Ok, back to topic, congrats to the lucky owner.

Love the white, but not the orange. I'm a boring black interior kinda guy. I can't wait to see comparison tests between the M5 and M6. I do like the M5 nose better.

What are you doing with my car??!!

Congrats - that looks to be exactly what I'm getting.

Im confused, so there are three levels of leather?

Standard, extended and full?

Can someone explain the differences or have pics of them?

dont quote me on this, but I believe it goes like this.

Standard = Minimal leather, similiar to a regular 5 series (no leather on dash/doors etc

Extended Leather = A little more leather (perhaps just on the top of dash and top of door panels etc).

Full Leather = EVERYTHING leather, the entire dash, the entire door etc..


In my opinion, on a car like this...FULL leather is the ONLY way to go.

So the M5 in this thread is just standard leather? I could live with that. Id love to see comparo pics with a bright color like Sakhir Orange to see all the differences.

reading through this thread it sounds as if Extended Leather is the standard and Full is the option (or at least in Canada)

I mean, why would anyone choose a grade lower than extended if it costs the same?

Correct. There are two trims, extended and full. There is no standard (think of that as extended, which is the base)

Okay but then the definition of extended is pretty lax if there isn't a leather dash.

This car is a beauty!

Yes, nice color combo

[nynd]

Damn! Nice car.

[iiceman]

Excellent choice on the Sakhir Orange. I'm going to put that on my order with the Singapore Grey. Can't wait until the US cars start coming in.
