Harman Kardon is back ???
I was just checking the BMW build site, and the Harman Kardon system is back for the X40i. Only now, it’s now an $875 option separate from the Premium Package, which is still $2800. So.... was it ever a chip related shortage or, was it just a maneuver by BMW to raise prices by $875. Sure seems like the latter.
I’m gonna check with the dealer today and see what the deal is. |

For MY21 they packaged with Premium and now it looks like they pulled it out and made it also available as an individual option again... but when you select Premium, HK is $0 as in included

But, you are correct, if you select both, the HK is $0. Regardless, I’m wondering if it’s actually available or not? |

And mine just told me it IS back for Premium but NOT for Executive. I really don't know what to believe anymore.

I just heard back from my salesman, he was indeed able to build a car with the HK 688 system. I have actual build sheet from BMW showing it. But, the air suspension is no longer available. Since we are going to tow, that was more important to us than the HK.
This is more frustrating than trying to get a COVID vaccine. |

HK was removed from my build as of today and so was the air suspension.
However, you can still add the air suspension as an option. But correct, HK is standard in premium package. But it vanished from my build on the tracker. Someone needs to give us some legit answers or is someone having fun messing around with the configurator? |

Maybe they are just in the middle of modifying the website and we are being too concerned. Has this type of thing happened before? This is my first BMW.
My sales rep is off today so I cant even get answers from the dealer. |

It’s a big concern to me. My order has been on hold waiting for the HK to come back. Today, the salesman confirmed the HK is back, but the air suspension is not available. I’m gonna tow, so the air is a must have.

Called my dealer, he got it to add KH surrounds as an option. Shows up on my garage too. He's not confident it will stick once it goes to 150 status.
