Silverstone Exterior / Silverstone & Black Interior w / Wood trim. Like Marcelo said: You're not going to be jumping into the car with dirty lubed overalls?

Audio can be upgraded in other ways - and PDC- maybe you can live without? I understand your "resale" concerns - but, you need to buy/invest/drop the cash into something YOU will love, and feel good about
driving ALOT!

Comfort is the key, and regrets are the killer.
I for one would love to have another M5er in Silverstone around here- but just make sure you can live / sleep well at night without the features you've raised concerns about.

Good Luck

00 Silverstone / Silverstone-Black


Originally wanted blk interior. Car I will be looking at has silverstone. Any comments on silverstone? Does it hold up to dirt and wear as well as I think blk might? On the plus side, probably not as hot in summer ..

Rgds,

Unfortunately, my 540i/6 did not have shades or PDC so I don't really know if I would like those options or not. I didn't have rear fold-down seats either and I think I want them (car I will look at has 'em). I had the DSP premium stereo in the 540i - not totally awful. I'm guessing that would be the standard M5 stereo (anyone?). So I really need to decide. I know I wished I had gotten the Nav in my 540i but that won't be an issue with the M5.

Rgds,
Norm
