Hi fellow Bimmer lovers :),I'm sure most of you would know of the BMW configurator on www.bmwusa.com (which, when working well, is one of the best configurators out there). I just thought I'd share with my fellow 6'ers the configuration of my incoming F13. Honestly, while indenting & spec'ing up the car is fun, the wait is really KILLING me :(. Unfortunately, I'm not able to choose the option of high gloss satin black (shadowline) instead of the chrome that's shown in the configurator - that's about the only thing that will be different, when my F13 comes in.The specs are:Vehicle make/model: BMW 2012 F13 640i M-sport coupeColor: M-sport exclusive Carbon Black MetallicSpecifications: 1735kg, Twinpower turbo 2979cc inline 6 cylinders N55 engine with 320hp & max 450Nm torque available from 1300 - 4500 rpm & 0-100km/h time quoted as 5.4s, top speed capped at 250km/hNotable options:- Adaptive Drive (Dynamic Damper Control + Dynamic Drive)- Adaptive LED headlights (includes High-beam assistance and adaptive headlights functions) - this is the first BMW to have full LED DRL, low-beam & high-beam headlights!- Automatic Start/Stop function- BMW Head-Up Display in full colour- BMW Individual High Gloss Shadowline to go with the M-sport package- Comfort Access System- Comfort Seats- Internet Connection (basically I can google on the 10.2" TFT screen and read my emails etc through that!)- Light alloy wheels 20" Double spoke M rims (373M) with mixed runflat tyres (but I'm definitely swapping these for standard Pirellis or Michelin tyres once the car comes)- Navigation system Professional, with integrated harddisc for maps and audio data- Park Assistant (self parallel parking)- Park Distance Control (PDC) front and rear- Rear view camera- Roller sun blind for rear window- Soft-Close function for doors- Sports automatic transmission Steptronic (8 speed) with paddle shifters- Surround ViewEnjoy!

Hi guys,

Could I just get some comments from you regarding what/how you think about my F13 being equipped with the bicycle rack like in the photo below, please?

Since my F13 is an indent unit, I do have a lot of flexibility to order & mix & match & do things to it, as opposed to picking something from existing stocks :) - thanks for your input in advance!
 
Looks terrible with the rack. Buy another utility car to transport your bike.
 
Thanks form your honest opinion - I don't know if the rack is detachable as a modular unit or not. If it'll be fixed on permanently, I agree with you - it'll look damn ugly!

I can't contemplate how wife would react if I passed on your suggestion - say, an X6, to transport the bikes (which we havent bought by the way). I think that's nearly grounds for divorce liao haha!
