After much anticipation, I finally ordered our new 530 last Thursday. I have been tracking this for months here on the forum and bugging the hell out of my dealer for any bits of info on it. It finally paid off. This will actually be for my wife since I got the 3 series last March. We test drove one (european model 525) and it really looks sweet with the new changes to the lights and front end. Drives like a dream. We were told to expect delivery sometime late December or early January (since we are in Germay). The wait for my 3 series was agonizing enough, but at least I have it to drive now while we are waiting for the 5er. Our dealer threw in free shipping back the states when we leave next year ($700 value) and also the lumbar supports for the seats as a gift for our loyalty to her. My wife and I were debating it when we were doing up the order, so she made it easy and gave it to us at her expense. This is what we ordered:

530i Titanium Silver/Grey Leather
Steptronic tran.
Sport/premium pkg
premium stereo w/6pk CD changer
Xenons
Convienience Pkg
fold/split rear seats
Cold weather pkg
(lumbar support)

Now for the wait!
