Willing to bet DHP will become available for 40i when M50i is out 2020...seems to be available for 40i in some markets currently where 50i is not available.

I want to custom build my X5 50i. Any recommendations on a CA in the Northeast who will do a great deal on a custom order? I'm in the Boston area. Willing to go far for a special deal.
The engine BMW out in the 50i is a revision not the same exact legacy engine. The specific one is an N63M so yes while the N63 itself is old the revision is not.
