Final confirmation of options - Advice Needed

Gents
Looking for some quick advice. My M4 is just about to go into build (literally) so i have today to 100% confirm my spec list today . So far i have;

Mineral Grey with Silverstone Merino Leather
HUD with speed limit display
19" black alloys
DCT gearbox
Convertible comfort pack (Air Collar, Heated steering wheel, deflector)
Reverse Camera
Through load
Sliding arm rest
Adaptive Xenons w/high beam assist
Harmon Kardon
Carbon Fibre Trim

Will also be adding M Performance black grilles

Anything else i should add? The main one im thinking is surround view at £500? Do you guys use it much or is it a gimic, just nervous about the alloys

LED headlights are tempting, but at £1600 and seeing as ive ever used them before , i dont know if they are worth it or not?

Extended storage? dont even know what this includes? Only £155

Online entertainment, again dont know what this is? £325



So really its whether you guys would advise surround view is worth the £500?

It's already a great spec and a great colour choice.

The black grills are a must. Sets the car perfectly.

The main one for me that I would consider would be the LED lights. they really do look great and Im a little sad I never went for this option after seeing them in person. If you can spare the cash then i would say go for it
The rest of them I wouldnt bother with imo.

Extended storage and online entertainment are a must in my opinion

Surround view cams are worth a lot to me. I would pay 2x that. They are awesome when parking or driving near curbs to make sure your not going to get rash on a rim.

Online entertainment is about 30 million songs from various sources, Napster, spotify and the like. I am not actually sure if the extended storage differs from model to model

LED is a option I would definitely tick. They do make a huge difference in appearance at night. And a service pack would be money well spent.

Storage bin beside steering wheel, the nets in the boot stop all your groceries rolling around ��

As above I wouldn't buy a convertible and would have the LEDs (they are literally brilliant) and would get all the cameras, saves the wheels and front lip

Spec was all locked in so couldn't add anything. Not fussed though, I've had the dealers car for a few days and this thing literally has very option.
LEDs , can't tell the difference when driving, no better than xenons.
surround view, nice but again won't miss it, the reverse cam is enough

So glad I went for a convertible, it just gives the car a much more fun style. I found the coupe a great car but didn't sound as loud and wasn't as fun. Driving through some twisters in the sun, roof down today, nothing can beat that and a coupe doesn't give the Same thrill unfortunatley
