See if the US 535is all came with SA226, seats and heckspoiler

Get a list of all the possible SA options on each model represented, 528e, 524td, 535i and m5 for the US. Might not need to do the € cars as they came with whatever was ordered. The US cars were spec'd by BMWNA with limited 'options' available.

Inquiring minds want to know.

My blundering on this site continues

I re-checked the VIN I had written on my board against the photo on my phone since what you sent came back with the Alpine white color and I gave you the wrong one. I'm sorry! Proper one is WBADC7409H1716751

ncpaladin · Post by **ncpaladin** » May 24, 2011 4:01 PM

Is it possible that option code 841 is the day/night rear view mirror with the map lights?

As far as my 533i, it was produced in 5/83. I'll post the last 7 after I get home.

Brian,
Would appreciate your info on my 1983 528e, WBADK7301D7955481, when you get a chance. Wanna know if it's a Monday product.

My 1961 Pontiac 2-door Bonnieville Super Duty 389 V-8, Hurst 4-speed was, including the coke bottle rattling around inside the left rear piller cavity. Really!

I don't have that option but do have the tweeters in the front doors for an 86. Did all the E28s in MY 86 and later have the door tweeters? Or at least all the 535i's?

Pivot tables! So far there are 2 people with 10/10/1986 as their production date (Zach716 & brkinshiz).

Chart: Total by Month with an additional sort by Year: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/n ... directlink

Chart: Total by Month only: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/n ... directlink

May is "WINNING" with 5.

Zach716 ~ let me know if you want help with this. I spent maybe 10 minutes throwing together a pivot table and working with the data to get those charts. Just trying to be helpful. I'll try to email you the spreadsheet I made from your link and tweaked the data some to make it pivot-friendly.
