Same here... 3 young ones... Hope I can manage with the XL

Got lucky buying it with the July 4th discount... substantial price increase after that.....

Most of the time we don't even end up using a stroller

Completely agree... unless it is an umbrella stroller it wouldn't be that easy to throw one in there...

Took the wife and two kids to Walenstadt Switzerland with 3 ISUPs, 4 bikes and a week of other stuff...

I have Thule roof rails, Yakima SkyBox 16 box and Saris Freedom 4 Hitch Bike Rack.

Handled the Alps like a champ and got 24+MPG as long as I kept it 130KPH (~80MPH) and below.

This is on the way home, so please don't mind the dirty ride!

Yeah we have a travel stroller which is pretty small

About time a 23 shows up. Looks great. Can't wait for wife's to get through QC and pick it up at PCD. What's your take on the look of it in person? Did you get the M Sport Pro? It would be cool if the rear badging were black.

Thanks. Much better looking in person, IMO. Wife picked out the exterior color, and I actually am thrilled with it.

Went with the M-sport pro package. Agree that the rear badging would look better in black, or satin like the grill surround is.

There is also a chrome strip on the rear, running the width of the car between the tail lights. Wish that was black or satin like all the other exterior trim. Seems out of place to black out everything with the M-sport/pro and leave that one strip chrome.

We have an M sport pro on the way in skyscraper gray with black wheels. I just assumed that there would be no chrome bits. I may have to do something about that. The ride looks boss and modern. Glad you guys like it. I talked my wife into waiting nine months to get the 23.

Hi, new poster, but have been lurking for years.
Has anyone that has ordered 23" wheels received their X7 yet?
I've gone back and forth with color/wheel combos for over 2 weeks....struggling to find the right combo and pull the trigger on my order. I'm debating Dravit Grey with Black 22" 755's or Mineral White with the 23's....

I ordered my M60 with the 23" wheels but switched it to the 22" wheels before it hit production. I was worried about hitting pot holes and blowing the sidewall out on the 23s.

Yes....that's a concern. I have 30 series run flats now and have broken the sidewall on a pothole.
The 23s look great but I should probably use my common sense and go with 22s.
I started down the road with 23s because I'm not a fan of the 22" wheel choices available with M Sport trim. I like the 2022 options, as well as the X5 choices quite a bit more.

Agreed... I wish BMW had more wheel choices in all available sizes.

I debated for a while too but ultimately went Dravit with the black 22s! Build locked this weekend.

JazTampa · 08-21-2022, 10:49 PM

When did you put in your order? What was your timeline from order received ? 111 to 112 to 150?

Great combo! Congrats!

I just need to pull the trigger. The more I hang around this place, the more I find myself running in circles!

So....I think I'll just ask for some opinions. Yea... I know....this probably won't help, but if anyone feels like chiming in, please do!

Dravit, Mineral White or Skyscraper Gray?
