Thanks very much. Initially planned on getting white, then decided on Carbon black, then switched to Black sapphire. Changed order to phytonic on the last day... I’m pretty happy with the final choice, but all the colours look great IMO. Space grey would have been nice to have as as an option too...

Very nice 2 car garage you’ve got there! You must be one of the first 40i owners to get delivery. Happy with it? A nice time to take delivery, right before a long weekend and the weather in Melbourne is looking to be amazing.

Thanks!

Yes beautiful weather today. Will take it for a spin. Working all weekend, unfortunately but all good - will take it up to Bendigo next week then Yarra Valley the following.

Yes, not many 40i around, especially with the seven seats. I'll get done more pics today.

I've been enjoying searching my way through the menus and customising all that is customisable!

Updates from BMW dealer this week:
- BMW Connect app on idrive 7 is not working on many cars - has been down for a few weeks due to BMW server issue
- 'revitalise' feature progressively being activated in Australia (server based)
- driver attention camera being activated 'soon' in australia
- wireless charger: recognised it is overheating phones. until this is resolved - recommend plug in charger due to heat shortening battery life

Anyone purchased one recently and care to share specs and price paid?

Have negotiated down to $120k drive away (Vic) for a 40i, with m-sport, performance pack, sky lounge, wireless charging, cup holders. Haven’t decided on it yet.

Rrp was quoted at around $143k, although I did notice this dealership use $4,995 as dealer delivery fee instead of $3,995 which another dealership used. Both are in Victoria.

This is a real pain, as it means downgrading the wheel size and the MSport trim does not come with 19".

Anyone else encountered this issue on the new model? The dealer was unaware, and I've asked them to raise with Mulgrave HQ/Ryan to sort out how I can get Mpack and go to the snow!

Just wondering was there any update to this?
Im assuming with 22inch wheels, there’s no way to put on snow chains?
I couldn’t find any chains online.

I negotiated a $186k (rrp) M50d down by $22k recently. not much resistance :-)

That seems a pretty good price to me.

Yes basically they are everything I want. Except it would be better with massage function seat as I have back pain on long drive.

anything above 13% discount on the dealers drive away price is a good deal. (new cars not demo)
gapmatt's 16% discount is a good deal. Next few weeks prior to EOFY is the time to strike.

Hi Folks,

Just wondering if anyone knows that for new X5 Aussie order, does Gesture Control still come as standard option? I recently put an order for an X5 40i (prod date 2019-06-27, not delivered) and noticed from VIN decoding details that no Gesture Control is included.

Cheers!

Well it was standard for us, and it was listed as standard on the BMW Configurator. It looks like they made it an option now. What a bummer, it is really cool to have it.

When we collected our car, the salesman said that gesture control was an option now. We were quite confused, as the configurator still said it was standard. We figured he was confusing it for the new 3-series or something, although now that you bring this up, perhaps he was right. I'll check our vin on the decoder and see if we have it.
