Funny - wish I could replace my multi-contours with something that, for the money and praise, had lumbar in the arse area. Feels like I'm sitting in a hole IMO and would love to replace them.

Depends how low or high you want to sit. Another pet peeve of mine with the BMW seat is that as you raise it, it goes forward (on a canted lift system). If you go low, is goes back further.

The lease rates and residuals for the GT were incredible in the fall of 2011. The 550GT actually leased out better since it had a higher residual. The residual came from BMW as far as I know and...

Had BMW swap mine in 1 week and bought the continental flat tire kit to keep in the trunk (held nicely in place by the strap on the side of the trunk). I went with 18" Primacy's FWIW.

Ding - ding - ding we have a winner. Sinandy is correct. Pressing the panic button for about a second pops the trunk lid only.

Nice find!

Still trying - nothing :-)

Does anyone know how to hold the trunk release on the remote and only open the small trunk, not the entire hatch?

ED if you can afford the time to make the trip is a good option.

Otherwise for a cash deal - just print out your order and fax it to many dealers in the area to get your best deal.

Mercedes used to lease where you could buy miles up front, and if you were under mileage, they would write you a check when you turned the car in. That was nice!
