but yes, start with the drive type, and a few features that you need or don't need. that will determine your "package" or, of course, you can special order, but an AWD special order would seem to take 4-6 months wait time.

for instance, do you want a rear sunshade? or how about illuminated door sills? or the famed NAV? questions like that will help you land on a package. i can remember on the website that black leather was offered with breakwater blue, which us BWB type know that this is not true, so phil S/O'd the sucker!

goodluck! i love my 250!
Um...my last loaner car was an AWD, BWB w/ black interior. Don't know if it was 06 or 07, but that combo does exist. (And I liked it!)

Will an AWD drive 250 compared to the RWD 250 have a better time in rain with the same tires? I thought I read somewhere AWD has no benefits in the rain but I find that a little hard to believe or maybe it's because I have the AWD and want to believe what I want to

Here in cali auto RWD 250s w/ Nav seem to be the hottest IS selling, typically see the two silvers more than any other color.

cool. i never "built" a AWD on their site, so i wouldn't know if they even offer it. but a RWD, i built it online, and i took it into a dealer and they said, er, if you want that exact print out, you have to wait 4-6 months since it falls into s/o category. i think sterling leather is softer than the black leather anyway.
