So I'm closing in on a deal this saturday, this is the only MY19 X5 I've considered. I don't see anywhere that it has Skylounge nor do I see it has android auto, but online it says it has both.

Vin Decoder makes no mention of either...

But the car appears to be pretty loaded, with the exception of Msport.

The dealership says yes it has both, but honestly I don't think that's correct. at least not for Skyview, so what's the story?

Sky lounge didn't come on every x5, It's part of the executive package I believe.

So this vehicle is equipped with the executive package, but I still don't see it listed anywhere.

2019 executive package did not include sky lounge, that started with MY20

Skylounge (coloured ambient lighting on the panoramic glass roof) was an available option in several countries around the world, including Canada, for MY2019 X5s. It was not, however, available on U.S. models until MY2020.

As far as Android Auto, you may want to review my reply in your other thread, where you asked the same questions;

Basically AA is now part of iDrive, the same as CarPlay, so with current versions of iDrive, it should be there.

Ugh I know. I went with this because it was a great deal and had everything I wanted and more except skyloujge m sport and Alcantara. Next round I'll try and snag a more loaded one.

I hear ya, I hope I am don't with the SUV thing when the kids a bit older...

My X3 MSport was amazing that shit handled like a 370z lol. It was a bumpy ride at times but honestly steering wheel, interior, engine, etc was awesome. It's the repairs that started to look like monthly payments in disguise.

Love the X5 for the space, map updates, android auto, warranty, connected drive and mybmw is a bonus but I slightly miss the sportiness of the X3 but hey it's a completely different category in the same class so you can't compare. I think it's the air suspension if you are used to a stuff ride don't go 2 axle air, stick with M adaptive(US) or DHP (EU)

My $0.02

[mikekay]

Any room for negotiation since they said it had MSport and doesn't? If not at least you can do is educate the SA about the product...

BONUS is traffic jam assistance and Drive assist professional! Those are life savers on long drives and commutes. Turn on massage and bam glance at the scenery for once.

Yeah Def no slylounge oh well. I don't think it has 2 axle air suspension or any of that. All it mentions is a sport gear box.

[mikekay]

Xline I believe has the same suspension as the M, just tuned differently. Your car will be a less boaty and stiffer one for sure. Mine has a tow hitch so I had to compromise:/

A lot of dealers haven't a clue, went into main dealers last week and they had a new X5 30D in showroom and sticker said 0-60 4.6 seconds!!! . When I pointed it out they asked if I was sure it was wrong.

Sky lounge in UK is a £2440 ($2650) stand alone option.

I think they are all playing dumb, because they saw how much they could get away with previously with the pandemic :/

Haha I REALLY wanted it. For the passengers. Ah well, at least the speakers light up.
