I'll admit that if the DHP isn't available on the 40i, I'm not definitively crossing it off my list. I'll have to drive a base 40i with the adaptive dampers and 4-wheel steering to decide if the truck is "good enough," but coming from a vehicle with the DHP, I'm expecting to be let down by a non-DHP vehicle.
Sadly, my lease on my '16 is up in October, so I won't have the advantage of waiting for the 2020 model year to see if BMW NA reverses this rather odd decision.
Notice that 40i buyers will also miss out on the M-differential as well if there is no DHP.
Also, I might as well gripe about the MSport pricing as well. $5800 bucks for something that does nothing to enhance the sporting nature of the vehicle? How I miss the days of BMWs Sport and MSport packages actually offering performance enhancements instead of merely cosmetic add-ons and such.
