I'm having huge regrets with not including DHP. I found a car with exactly my build in Alpine White. I love the Dravit Grey and currently have alpine white.

So question is... should I give up the Dravit color for the DPH?

Would you lose your deposit if you gave it up?

I was going to see if my dealer could acquire the car from them. I have done this in the past. I wont give up my deposit.

Mine went from Quality Check to being dispatched in about a day.

By dispatched, did you mean heading to your dealer? Or awaiting carrier?

I am. I've never had DHP so I won't know what I'm missing. I built this exactly how I wanted outside of that.

Plus it's awaiting carrier. So I'm close!

Certainly can't disagree - Dravit looks great and I'd have a hard time giving it up! Glad your wait is almost over - enjoy!!

It wasn't very clear. I called Genius and they told me it might have to stop somewhere in Carolina and then Baltimore and it could take a couple weeks. Well, that wasn't the case. The SUV was dispatched on Thursday and delivered to the dealership by Saturday evening.

Just checked.. mine was dispatched from factory! Hoping it arrives at the dealer in the next few days. With any luck, I'll be driving it next weekend!!

If you never had it, you won't miss it. Dravit looks stunning.

Dravit Grey Metallic
Tartufo Extended Merino Leather
Anthracite Brown Poplar Matte Trim
22" M Double-spoke black wheels, style 742M w/ performance non run-flat tires
Executive Package
M Sport Brakes with Red Calipers
Extended Shadowline Trim
Heated Front Seats, Armrests & Steering Wheel
Space-saver spare

Really wondering if not ordering the B&O system will be a regret...
Awesome. You won't regret anything. The B&W system is to create a luxury ambience, as is the Alcantara headliner and leather dashboard. For most people, the HK Surround is more than sufficient and both systems use the same amp and DSP, just one has higher rated power . One of my best friends has all of these on his X7. So you are missing out on extra luxury but you won't regret it. My 2 cents worth.

If you are leasing, this is a total non factor since it's something to add to your next lease.

Thanks! I have 22" wheels on my 2019 X5. I think it drives and handles great. In NH the roads are better than mass though.

Agreed, although I spend a fair amount of time in NH, as I have a place in Bartlett, so a lot of my driving is to/from there.... Do you have air suspension on your 2019?

No, I have the M adaptive suspension. I like it so much I opted against the DHP on the new car. Didn't want to stiffen the ride at all.

I opted for the DHP, hopefully I will feel the same way about the Adaptive M Suspension Professional.....
