        Post Central Vacuum option?

        What would be your "tour de force" option, if it were REALLY available. My wife mentioned she wants a central vacuum option for the car...since it's worth as much as the in-laws house in the mid-west....what's next, a stove?

        What I'd really like is for the car to come with a three-car garage...

        My wife has her own wish for a M5 option. She wants the passenger seat to recognize her "butt" when she gets in the car. Once it is "recognized" the seat warmer would automatically come on . She has several times forgotten to turn it on and it has pissed her off not to remember .

        I'm sooo glad the M5 doesn't come in an automatic.

        Enjoy the ride!!

        Jim,
        but you saw how badly the gorilla and Kevin Bacon reacted when they tried to "bring them back", can you imagine what "the beast" would do?!

        For me, I like the phase shift idea, but Id also like to see the incorporation of the Flux Capacator....

        If anyone has seen the t.v. show "Viper"(now shown on Sci-Fi channel), I'd love an M5 version of that with light-weight bullet-proof shell, rockets, stun-guns, electronic jammers, turbo boost, automatic targetting system, and the ability to morph from the M5 body shell to extra-mean crime-fighting shell(secret identity) at a push of a button.

        My favorite would be an M5 Knight Rider version. Jet Black stock-looking M5 with artifical intelligence, an almost invulnerable molecular-bonded shell, red scanner on hood, 0-60 in two seconds thanks to a turbine engine, and all the gadgets associated with a $10 million car. It could be called M.I.T.T.(Mgmbh Industries Two Thousand)
        Yeah,yeah, dream on, pal.

        If you want the flashing lights, I've seen all sorts of little toys that you "hiide" on you dashboard and they project the image "backwards" onto your windshield, or you could put upt he LEDs where you K40 goes

        Since I just watched Hollow Man last night, my ultimate option would be a phase-shift button. By pressing it I would be able to reconfigure the body over the chassis. This way I could alternate between normal, sleek coupe and roadster body styles to fit my moods and the weather.
