The April release was worth waiting for as it was a major service pack catchup. Not sure what 8.5 will provide. BMW just announced a new HUD coming out soon. My advice is order now if you want a car now. If you really don't need a car now wait until more is known about 8.5. Last edited by TechCTU; 03-24-2023 at 03:32 PM.. |

I have a ‘24 M60i on order (no allocation yet probably in 1-2 months), called to check things with my SA today and they have a ‘23 Alpina XB7 coming next week or so as the owner backed out of the deal, has everything except for full leather as it has extended merino leather, otherwise has the bowers and wilkins and bench seat which are my must haves. I transferred my order to it to look at it next week and to prevent it from being sold without tested by someone else. Any advise is appreciated if I should get it or just wait? Thx
P.S : I’m able to track it and it’s in quality check currently. |

Anither thing my SA told me is that bmw is sold out of alpina xb7’s through the rest of the year. Another factor making me lean towards it is that the ‘24 alpina might get a price bump as well like the regular X7 |

I received my build date for the week of 4/17 - any idea how much longer until delivery after that? Have to turn in my 7 series by 5/2 unless I want to extend the lease.

I ordered a 23 before I moved to a 24. I kept an eye on the 23 and it went into production a week early, finished that week and was shipped out. It took about a week to get to the dealer about 1000 miles away. So about 2-3 weeks is the current time for my location. That assumes it does not get stuck in QC.

It’ll be close. Will likely make it in time. But if it doesn’t, I think you can push your dealer for a service loaner or something for the few days gap.

and in the service pack thread https://g07.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2003271 The only new hardware in July from what I understand is a possible new head unit that would support OS 8.5. What is unclear is what new features OS 8.5 will have. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a4...ftware-update/ |

How long does the X7 usually spend in quality check. I’m tracking a ‘23 alpina xb7 since last week and it’s still in quality check, could it be out of QC but the webpage is not updating?

The issue could be small or something that failed inspection checklists. Some people have had it pass right through and others have been stuck there for a while. The US is better at communicating what the QC hold is than Germany. |
