Now that I am armed with the information you provided...I'm going to call as soon as they open this morning and get one on order...or starting calling other dealers here in Suffolk until I find one who will. EDIT: Ok...I take it all back. I just called and talked to the parts department and they DO have the adapter ON ORDER, it has just not been released by BMW. So...I must publicly apologize for ripping on my local dealer. Instead...I will publicly rip on BMW for making 6FL cars but NOT having the adapter in the cars or dealers when they arrive.

Good work Eric! Did your dealer say when they are expecting the cables to arrive? And did you find out if the 5 series cable is the same one?

Looks like it is the same one...I was just happy that they had in fact ordered one...it's just a matter of time till it arrives.

I pick up my car today but I've already talked to my CA and she confirmed that I won't be getting the cable today.
I got the Nav/iDrive option and I was looking forward to seeing how it works. But oh well.:mad:

Invoice price?
I've seen plenty of references to the $400 MSRP, but since many of us are working with Invoice+ pricing, I'd love to know the invoice amount for 6fl. I imagine anyone who price their car in this way, and picked up their ride recently, should be able to say.

Good luck! The local parts department here pretty much hates me...since I have bugged them 3 times in the last week about that cable. But hey...it's like buying a motorcycle and only getting one wheel.

The lower the price of the option, the lower the margin. I still assume it's a great deal even at retail. If I ever get to use it I'll let you know.

If I catch a whiff of attitude from the parts department I will not hesitate to call the GM. I will also remind him that BMW has not yet called me for the rating on my purchase experience.

Yeah...I can't wait to get for them to ask for my opinion. My "dealership" is great...they were just uninformed about the 6FL. But...BMW themselves...by not shipping out the cables....lookout....they are going to get an ear chewing.

I thought it sucked that the cable won't be delivered with the car when I pick it up in Munich ... but to not get it with your car in the states??? I did ask my CA about having the parts department order it so I could take it with me and I would replace it with the one on redelivery ....He said they don't do that

I had to use the info from the Forum to inform him of the difference. He then proceeded to inform me that he could not add 6fl...this was at "Scheduled for Prod. w/ no confirmed Product. date"!! BMWNA could not do anything either; only te dealer can modify orders... The dealer: "If I have to add 6FL, you'll have to wait another 12 weeks" This is after waiting 6 weeks already!!! So, I missed on 6 FL COMPLETELY!!!...because of my dealer. You, at least have 6FL and will eventually get your cables! I, will never get 6FL on this car! So, be patient folks...enjoy your cars...there is a lot to explore before you get the cable...Consider yourselves LUCKY! Enjoy, don't let a delay ruin the experience!

Really. The lady that sold me my 2003 325 coupe now is a service manager (she used to do that before she moved into sales). May try calling her tomorrow with the part number. She may have a better connection with parts manager. I am a little sorry now I didn't order the HD... I figured with the IPOD/USB connector I wouldn't listen to the FM as much... CA told me I should be turning off the radio and just enjoy listening to the car anyway

I'm especially concerned because after my PCD May 2nd I'm going straight to a 4-6 week trip through the east before driving back to LA. That means that if I don't get it that day, I won't have it for the entire trip. |
