Good luck!
No go on the wheels so far. My rep is pretty well connected and has said he’ll try going up to management level in Spartansburg to see if he can get the black accent wheels. Worst case I’ll have the 755M wheels with cerium accents up for swap soon. X7 should be in by end of September.

Anyone near Chicago interested?

Trade these...

I’ve considered painting since they’re accented in black. Don’t think I want to go full black this time around. I feel by going OEM i don’t need to worry about possible paint issues in the future. I have a great paint shop but there’s always a chance.

While I like the white with black accents (my current car), I think it’s gotten so common that a change to something different is welcomed by many. I personally like the cerium a lot, and like you, I ordered a dark color with the thought the contrast of cerium would look great. Based on pics of yours, I think we made a great choice lol! Congrats.
I just picked up today and I have to say cerium gray with black looks really good! I am happy with my choice.

That's awesome, MB21 ! I think the Cerium looks best with the M50i when the extended shadowline is not selected, and you've got all the accents Cerium like you've got it, and not just the wheels.

Looks so nice. I really like the trim choice too. I did that with coffee interior and can’t wait to see it. Do you mind sharing the deal you got on the car as well?

Looks great, MB21 ! The combination of all trims and colors really work well together. I thought the little //M on the shifter console was interesting. The letter inside the crystal shifter is still an "X", right, not an "M"?

Yes inside shifter is X but I think looks nice as it glows like rest of the switches.

Nothing super special, 2 months of my lease payment from car that that turning back this month and standard dealer discount.
The issue with X7 is that demand is relatively high so there are no super deals perhaps year or so from now

I need to add that we got the new wood trim which was not available in 2019. I was hoping for very wood looking trim with open pores and this one is exactly that. Ash grain black with bronze effect matte finish.

I just ordered my M50i a few days ago and was able to get a little over $10k off plus $1k for joining BMW CCA.

Oh well to late for me, what is the discount comprised off? And what is BMW CCA

I also checked thru supplier program and while I can get very good deals on 7 series there is non on X7 so I am curious about the composition of the deal or special treatment you got I am not returning customer or long term customer it is my first BMW . I originally ordered X7 50i with M trim but due to lack of dashboards I had to reorder again and then M50 was available, taking the same finishes hand technology components it needed up $350 less as many options have been included. And the M50 drives quite impressive I call it raising tank

Just negotiating. I didn’t qualify for the $1250 loyalty credit since I don’t own a BMW currently. BMW Car Club of America offers a $1000 rebate on the X7 when you purchase a three year membership for $134.

When you say negotiating, so you ordered it or will order.

Thanks for the note on the CCA

Just for clarification, the BMWCCA membership rebate is post vehicle delivery. You submit copies of your loan/lease and the rebate application to BMWCCA for processing and BMW NA sends you a check a couple of weeks later.

It is unclear, please see two screenshots. First say that all need to be provided in 15 days and second is contradicting stating that you need to be member before.

I emailed them for clarification

You must purchase a 3 yr membership within 15 days of your vehicle purchase.
Within 60 days of vehicle purchase submit your rebate through the site.

Umm ok, I provided additional clarification for BYEIL's post. Not anything on membership qualification.

But since you asked.

The first bullet is for existing BMWCCA members prior to the new join program.

The second bullet is for new members joining for the car club rebate benefit.

Granted the terms as written is confusing and I submitted feedback to the club.
