questions about X7 options, Dynamic Handling, Leather and M-Brakes
I am wondering why you can not get 2nd row captains chair with Coffee colored Merino leather?
I live in a Carmel, IN, the city with the most roundabouts in the US. I am wondering if the DHP would be a nice option to have as I can't go anywhere without driving through multiple roundabouts? How much Brake Dust do the M-Brakes create over the standard brakes? Lastly, will the new M50 V8 be the only V8 available for the 2020 and when can I place an order for the 2020 models? |

The current 50i and future 202(?) M50i will be the only V8 available in the USA. 2020 production switch over is usually August or September, but that doesn't guarantee the M50i will be announced or available.

Thanks for the feedback. Debating internally between adding DHP or off road package and/or B&W sound system. Not sure I need either DHP or Off Road, while I will use B&W everyday.

I have to admit, I don’t know a ton about cars, except I know what I like. But my husband is a true car enthusiast with lots of experience driving true exotics and sports cars, and every time he drives mine, he comments on how glad he is we added the DHP. My vote: get it.

Absolutely get DHP. I am a big BMW fan but I hate the way the new trucks drive without DHP. Had to be in an x5 loaner for two months last summer and couldn't wait to get back into my car, primarily because of the much softer and boaty ride that takes all the fun away from driving.

Depends on what your driving needs are for DHP or Off-Road. B&W is an excellent audio upgrade though I'd settle for the standard HK and option DHP because the X7 it's a big f'ing vehicle and IAS makes it much more maneuverable.
