I'm from NYC and I'm eyeing the xD40i but my mind is split with the eternal question black or white? Most roads here are like post-nuclear war and Dynamic Handling Package might come to the rescue...or not? The goal is to get 10-15% of the MSRP and Edmunds and some other online services offer great "suggested price", so I was wondering if there any other sources to config besides the official website? I'm grateful for every bit of help. Thanks.
I am in NY and just got my X7 M50i in White Mineral. I would only order it with the DHP but it really depends on how you drive. If you are an aggressive driver, it's a must have. I am coming off an X6M so it was very important for me. I would also recommend a wheel & tire insurance as in NY it comes handy, just make sure to negotiate a decent price. Mine was $1,950 with no deductible for three years.

There are a couple of forum members that have switched from Volvo so they will chime in on their experience. FWIW, I've only had the car for three days but I think BMW has done an exceptional job with making it a true luxury car that can move! You will enjoy driving it!
@exokiss I recently switched from a 2017 XC90 Inscription to a X7 M50i (pretty much fully loaded). Message me if you want any advice and or opinion on experience, options, etc.
