-Any input on soft close automatic doors?

-Is the premium sound system worth the cost?

Thanks
Premium sound is a must ... I miss not having it EVERY TIME I'm in my X5 (and I'm angry with BMW for making such a poor base system on a $60K+ vehicle).

As for the heated steering wheel, it is nice, but not something I would miss too much (especially if you park in a garage or usually wear gloves in the winter). I find I use it only for 5-10 minutes because there's only 1 temp setting.
