is the massaging and ventilated seat option really good? I really wanted the ventilated seat but dealer told me massaging option isn't that great its not like a lounge chair. so I went with only multi-contour seats.
Ventilated seats are worthless. That's why we skipped that package this go around.

Correct. They come as a package. We have the massaging seats and they are SO GOOD. Use them almost every time we are in the car. Talk about luxury/opulence! Feel like a king in these seats...

Agreed -- the ventilation feature seems pretty subtle. It's the massage feature that makes the package worthwhile.

If you have a VIN I believe you can't change the order anymore.

I tried a change. I was told once it's "scheduled for production" it's locked in the queue and no further changes are possible.

That's not true. I made several changes when mine was in 'schedule for production' stage. Once you have a VIN you can't.
Make sure to submit your request as quickly as possible before it goes into production. It literally takes the dealer 5-10 mins to make changes, At least that was the case with me

Yeah I don’t have the VIN yet. Dealer said he will give me once production starts. I need to do some serious thinking if i want to add luxury seat package. I thought the multicontour seats would suffice.

What brand of ceramic coating did you go with?

Also, for those who have gotten their windows tinted, did you do all windows plus rear or did you just do the two front windows?

If just the two front windows are done, what VLT % did you go with to match the factory "shade" of the rear windows?

I went with Geyon ceramic coating as recommended by several ppl in my area.

As for the window tinting I only did the two front windows to match the factory glass at 20%. I did this also as I ordered the executive package because it had the manual rear window shades and soft close doors and hud.

Hope this helps. I'm very happy with the choices I made imho.

Wow they all look great! Kind of want to get out of F15 lease now

Must say that when I get a G05 the 22s will be a MUST for me along with Merino leather

Here she is! My new 2019 X5 50i M Sport

Picked up my new 2019 X5 50i M sport on Sat. Black Sapphire w/Coffee Merino leather. Had Black M Performance 20 Inch 748M Winter Weather set installed so my new 22" rims will have to wait until Spring. The black rims look better than anticipated. Only snafu is the BMW app does not work so I have to take the car back to the dealership at some point. Unreal to take delivery of a new car and have something like this to deal with. Dealer said they are experiencing the same issue with others. This is my fourth X5 and they just keep getting better. Love the car.
