Sounds like it is resolving itself. They still owe you money for the mistake on the LSD option?

So, back to my MA I went to give him the news. We both agreed that everything would have to be ordered but we are waiting to BMW to make the move on this. Unfortunetly it is a big vacation season here in Germany and getting things done takes a little time. I'm certain it will be resolved soon.....


Still no heated seats yet, but the car is GREAT!

Actually, only the invoice was screwed up. I paid the amount I was supposed to pay for everything. So, they need to correct the invoice for book keeping and shipping back to the USA. Other than the cold weather stuff, is all that is missing.

That sounds great.. you will likely to have the heated seat soon.. but don't forget the heated mirror and the headlight washer jet, they are included in the CWP.

Oh yes, here in Germany, heated mirrors are essential as they tend to fog a lot. For me, the seats are simply a plus.... Thanks for the reminder!

I'll post the resolution soon. Germans tend to take a little longer to resolve things than americans do. For them it is all about the paperwork. Customer service is usually very good here, but you have to be ready to wait a little and I would rather have it done right than messed up. So, I'll keep you guys posted.
