Feeling tired of the lack of storage and the darn armrest telephone seems to be out for your elbows well being and feeling comfortable on them long drives?
Well time to exact the long awaited revenge on that ring-a-ding useless piece of illuminated plastic. It's not 2000s anymore. Now you can feel like a 1st world human being again with an European specific armrest which offers not only the extra storage for your Iphone, Ipod or your legally permitted hand gun, but also has a comfy phoneless place for your elbow to take a nap on.

Is your PayPal same as your email? I may want to buy a leather one as well depending on quality since I have 2 E39s. What would be the price for black leather?
This color is pretty rare here in Europe (maybe it's even considered individual), but if i come across one i will pm you.
It'd be awesome if you pm'd me your interior's color code. I can see there's different shades of caramel in existence.
