You could probably do this by going through the full Individual process for your order, but you'd come out paying a lot more, so you'd have to REALLY want it. Fyi though, I got to see the M5 recently and the leather on the dash and upper door trim feels cheap. It's thin, hard, and plasticky, not thick, plush, and soft as I felt it should be. If you've ever touched the transmission tunnel leather on an M3 that had Extended leather, it feels exactly like that. I was disappointed.
