Arctic grey with blue/white leather and Ash Grain High Gloss trim. Captains seats with all the boxes checked except for night vision that came out after my order and laser lights due to whatever made BMW pull them from the order sheet.

Oh right, forgot that one! No, maybe I'm old fashioned but i love the chrome! I feel it gives the car length. Also its a 50i. Though I'm sure most production is 40i's, I'm not sure if 40i's are popping out any faster or not.

Well, if you went with a 2nd row bench, we have the exact same X7 except I have the LED Laser lights.

We bought it off the showroom floor, it was one of the first batch BMW pushed out to the dealerships.

I've posted on this forum before that out last several cars were white so the Arctic Grey was a departure for us but we're loving it and get a lot of compliments from friends and strangers alike. You'll be getting them very soon.

Has anyone’s wait been longer due to choosing the “individual” navy/ivory interior? I was told that takes a little longer, but so many of them have this interior that that seems strange to me.

Well mine was in "quality check" for 4 weeks, and that's my interior, so maybe. I don't think you can judge by what's already out there though, because obviously BMW planned on having supplies for the initial builds / launch vehicles but came up short in some places for normal builds and special orders. An example of that would be the LED laser lights that are not currently available (even though nearly if not all launch vehicles had them) and I've even heard that gesture control equipment has been hard to come by for April builds.

So I called the BMW hotline, and the automated system told me it was still in quality check even though My Garage said it was awaiting carrier assignment. So I talked to a human who told me that it was actually being picked up today and should be at the dealership tomorrow! Woo hoo! I guess I should be happy I live only a few hours away from Spartanburg. (Yes I should have done factory delivery but oh well, maybe next time!)

Totally, dude! Everybody says the PDC delivery is the way to go. I'm even trying to figure out a way I could do it, from Alaska. Great opportunity, if you're next door.

This is my first time ordering a BMW, was excited to see the online tracking tool however since showing active and getting the "todays the day note" on April 4th, nothing has changed at all. I called the 1-800# and was given the same answer except they added that scheduled for completion on 4/18. Is this typical to not move through the different statuses? We are excited to get our new X7 40i but this tracking system has been a let down.

So after 8 days of sitting as “Production Begins” on the online tracking status I jumped straight to “Quality Check” today. According to the folks at the 800 number I should take delivery in 2-3 weeks.

This is now my 6th BMW tracked using this online tracker since, what, 2006 and it’s getting worse, not better, setting the internet back decades.
