Hi All--
Just found out that in order to get a full-up OBC you have to buy the
540! I really like the OBC in my '90 535i and use it ALL the time. In
fact, lack of a real OBC was one of the reasons I didn't but a Q-45.
Oh well, yet another reason to stick with my 535 despite 122K miles and
a few aches and pains...

Hi Joe!
Actually, you can get the high-OBC in the new 528i.
I was able to do it by paying a $200 "special order" fee and
paying an additional fee for the upgraded computer.
However, I am in the U.S. Military stationed in Germany
and I ordered the car through BMW's Military Sales Program.
You will have to check with your stateside U.S. dealer to see
if he can do it. It's option #555.
Best of luck,
