The manufacturing lines typically shut down for ~1 month to re-tool for a new model. So since the F15 begins production in August, that likely means the last E70s will be made in he ~July timeframe....

Actually, PenFed's rates have been (and still are today) 1.49% for both new and used for up to $70k and 60 months. So doing a re-fi with them will still be 1.49% even if it is considered "used".

Nope, no rattles here.

If I have the top down and all windows up and take a high speed bumpy corner, the front and rear windows rattle against each other a little bit. That's about the only sound...

I added sat radio into our '06 e90 (with sat prep) and it ran about $600 - $475 for the parts and $125 labor. This was with my 10% BMWCCA discount.

It should be somewhere in that ballpark for an...

Had the car 3 years, has almost 15k. I guess that's a little under 100 miles/week, though 1600 miles went on it in one week during ED.

So make that 85 miles/week.

I just don't trust that the mobility kit will do the trick in the event of a bad flat - having a real spare just feels safer to me.

Plus, I rarely used the trunk in day-to-day use of the car, so...

That's actually not true. I have an 18" spare sitting in the trunk of my e93 right now with the top down. It fits just fine, with a tiny bit of room to spare (no pun intended).

Check ebay before you order - I picked up a brand new windscreen for $299 that way, much cheaper than any of the online BMW dealers were asking. It's hit and miss, but sometimes you get lucky.

That's definitely true. The BMW CA for the trunk sucks, but with ST, it is actually usable.
