Re: M5 interior / option questions (archive)

1: What is the major difference between the Black Standard Leather Nappa (Sport) and the Black Heritage Leather (Luxury) choice? Feel, or just the "extended" on the dash, etc. And is there an opinion on Bruyere vs. Burr Walnut wood? I see you can get the Bruyere as an option on the Sport (vs the Aluminum).
2: Is the PDC worth it, given the look of the dots on the fenders?
3: Is the M Audio worth the space you give up in the trunk?
Thanks in advance

I have a 2002 model, and here are my comments:

1. The heritage nappa has a softer feel. It really is a matter of taste, but the softer may be more easily damaged. However, I have it and so far after 4 months and 6K miles, it seems to be holding up very well.

2. I didn't get the PDC because I didn't like the dots. I am pretty carful parking and don't drive in the city enough to warrant it. I personally don't like the look.

3. I have the M audio. You loose very little trunk space, and it is at the top of the trunk, under the rear parcel shelf. I would reccomend it, you won't lose anything.

I would suggest getting the folding seats for sure. Hard to beleive this is an option, but it is. Also, I wish I would have gotten the rear sunshade. I think this is a good option to keep the car cool in the summer.
