Of course, that screws over folks like me whose leases are coming to an end in that gap, and also the folks who recently custom ordered with B&W but won't get it.

Good news on my front is there seem to be plenty of new X5 M50i's out there with B&W, so I could snag one right now, or I could switch things up and get a CPO M550i with B&W for nearly half the price.

Maybe can't get exactly what I want, but there are lots of options.
