I got lucky to a degree that my local dealer had a vehicle in stock that had the exact same exterior like the one I ordered (paint, wheels, extended shadowline and even the trailer hitch - LOL).

Good thing I liked it...

Great build! I have the same config but skipped the B&W and Rear Seat Entertainment. You will love the Dynamic Handling. The color combo is fantastic!

Thanks! I saw your pics of your ride and it looks fantastic, too!

I'm looking forward to the all ivory interior and especially to the ivory Alcantara headliner. That is something I haven't seen yet...

Love Ivory, it's elegant and elevates the luxurious feel to another level but can't have it for at least another 5 yrs till kids grow up

Woot! Congrats. You and I seemed to be the long-waiting researching people here on the forum, and you've beat me to ordering. I'm going to be working out of the country until May, so I likely won't be ordering for delivery until next summer now at the earliest.

Ivory interior with the Piano Black. Now that will be interesting just on its own. Can't wait to see pictures!

Hey 760Lifan since you just placed an order, did you discuss with dealer(s) the supposed new Individual options being released this month, to include the new M seats?

From what I've heard from my dealership these new individual options don't apply to the U.S.

I basically had to order right now. The lease on my Audi expires on 02/15/2020 and I certainly wanted to get out of that lease on that date.

It will be your turn at some point as well and by waiting longer, you always have the opportunity to get additional options not available yet.

I'll post lots of them when I get it.

Initially, I was planning on getting the individual trim with the metal inserts but I thought the shiny piano might be more impressive at night, reflecting all the lights on its surface.

In addition, the entire design theme of the vehicle is black & white and the piano trim is basically like the (extended) shadowline trim - just on the inside.

I did not discuss those options in particular but I contacted a long time forum member on the other BMW-forum who is a dealer as well. I asked him if there was a new pricing- or order-guide and he declined.

However, he stated that the most up-to-date pricing guide was a re-release dated 11/08/2019. I attached a copy of that.

The only major change I could see was the fact that running boards are now an available option on the 40i with the M-Package. You can see the detailed changes on Page 2 of the attached .pdf.

Awesome. I'm also going for the "stormtrooper look". Even looked up "TK421" as a license plate, but somebody already has it in Alaska.

I hope you are satisfied with the wheels! I know you were wanting the other choice, but not available with the M50i.

They looked pretty good on the one they had in stock. It's simply the 'darkest' 22"-option there is on the M50i so I did not have to think that much about it. Here's a pic I found on the web. Works for me....

Does the dynamic handing package really do much? I feel like I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.. And it's an expensive option!!

I'm not sure about the road preview but the integral steering was a must have for me. I currently have that on my Q7 as well and the turn radius on these 200" vehicles is just amazing.
