Where did you see the price changes for the 3 packages? I am ordering the Executive package soon I think but am very confused what BMW is and is and is not offering for HK Radio and glass controls.

The Configurator reflects the new package pricing for both the xLine and MSport packages.

So I just ordered my car last week. A day before I place my order I, not my SA, discover HK is dropped. Complete confusion at my dealer on the HK issue and Premium pricing. I end up with no HK and no Premium package because the pricing without the HK makes no sense (was $2800, then $1925 to compensate for no HK according to my SM). Now 7 days later pricing is completely changed again and I can get HK, premium, or Executive for far less. How is this in any way acceptable? I’ll be on the phone with my dealer tomorrow but my car has entered the production queue. What are my options at this point? Is it unreasonable to expect knowledgeable SAs, some clarity and consistency in pricing when buying any car let alone on a $74k build? Pretty disappointed with the entire sales process, the miscommunications, the just plain ignorance of what they are selling (on major design features and options), and now this, what a hassle, makes me just want out at this point.

So checking my order compared to what's offered today (3/9), here's what I noticed:
- Harman Kardon is now a separate option for $750 - Executive Package is $750 less and no longer includes the HK - Parking Assist package is not available Otherwise, everything is the same as when my order was placed in early February. (I am picking it up for the BMW Experience in 10 days) |

Parking Assistance is no longer an option in the configurator for the 45e, still there for the 40i. Maybe this was the trade for removing Air Suspension from the 40i.

That has got to be a mistake, give it time and lets hope it reappears as I don't see it included in any of the pkgs :-(

Spoke with my SM a couple times this morning. First call to inform him of the HK availability and other pricing changes which he promptly denied were true and questioned my sources. After telling him about this thread and the fact that it's available on the configurator, I asked him to please research it further and when he called back the second time he told me after looking through their bulletins and speaking with the order guy he doubled down and told me it's still not true and using the configurator doesn't mean it's available. While we were discussing the possibility of canceling the order, his order guy texted him to say I was correct after all, you can now get the HK unit. He's not sure if he can change my build since it's "Entered the production queue", which it has been for a couple days now, so he's sorting through options. We'll see what they come up with...

So they can't modify my build but they will allow me to order a new car for the deal but they may not be able to honor by trade-in (even though its been onloy 7 days since I submitted my order. The SM told me that I can add HK for $895 as a stand alone option. All good until I asked them to put it in writing... they went away an now are telling me that I need to order the Executive package to get HK. You can't make this up, but can anyone confirm the HK can be ordered as stand-alone option on a X5 M Sport? Meanwhile I've asked to talk with the "Order Guy" to see if I can get to the bottom of things.

I was able to add it as an additional option on my x5 45e. I had the Premium package originally, then the HK went away, but today the dealership manage to add it and shows in Mw garage build.

Okie Dokey, thanks for the clarification - then per my earlier post, the HK is an option that lists for $875 unless you pick either the Premium or Executive Pkg in which case it is still a separate option but the price is reduced to $750. This is per the current online configurator.

I believe the consensus is that you can only choose the HK option if you either have Premium or Executive package. I may be able to confirm that on Thursday when I talk to the “order guy” since no one else there can definitively answer the question. Either way HK is there now. With respect to my car, they are telling me I can’t add it to my build since it already has a VIN so it means ordering a new car and dealing with the wait and whatever new problems arise.

Yeah, I saw that and inferred what you did. However as it sits, if you pick the HK option without the P or E package, the configurator automatically includes E. Delete E and it drops HK. Choose P and then you can add back HK. So no P or E, no HK. I'll see if I can confirm that tomorrow although if anyone else can confirm it, great, since I've lost confidence with my dealer. At this point they resist everything I ask them until I push back hard and force a response.
