Looks like you could have your X5 at the end of February!
My production slot was acquired Feb 1st.
I can't remember when the status changed to "Scheduled for Production" ... I think it was Monday [2/8]

Please keep us posted. That will give me an idea of the rest of the timeline.

Will do! The most excruciating part of the wait is that my wife's X3 already left the factory and we put the order in for both the same day

Luckily she's gonna wait for me to take delivery LOL

My spec:

Dravit Grey Metallic
Coffee Extended Merino Leather
Carbon Fiber Trim
22" M Double-spoke black wheels, style 742M w/ performance non run-flat tires
Driving Assistance Professional Package
Executive Package
Parking Assistance Package
M Sport Brakes with Red Calipers
Extended Shadowline Trim
Front and Rear Heated Seats
Heated Front Seats, Armrests & Steering Wheel
Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System
Space-saver spare

GREAT build! I'll be ordering almost the same soon enough with the addition of DHP and minus the DAPP and B&W (having all would cross 'the line' for me

)

If you can, post some nice photos of the Dravit Grey as I havent seen any detailed shots just one off side shots. In any case congrats and drive it in good health!

If you can swing it, I would suggest adding the DAPP, not only for the driver assistance features but also the extra safety items.

There are some good shots, and some very terrible ones, in this thread. https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1780981

For sure! It's scheduled to be completed 2/21 so I am reallllyyyyy hoping they move it up to next week sometime.

Btw I agree with TurtleBoy... if you can manage DAPP I would get it.. better for safety and resale too

jo2134 · 02-12-2021, 07:20 PM

Based on the 2 features listed on the package I don't feel that the DAPP is worth it to me to take the car to the 100k mark. Kind of a psychological thing I guess

When I built my F15 I was not aware what a big deal DHP is so I definitely felt (and am still feeling) that I missed out on that but I don't feel that will be the case with the DAPP

If I were opting for the 40i (which is still possible if they bring DHP and individual paints back to it before I order) then I may add the DAPP as an extra to make up for the lost muscle

We all have to make our own decisions as to what is worth it. Just for others reading this in the future though, the DAPP includes numerous assistance and safety features, not just two.

I agree 100%.

I originally passed on a 17% off MSRP 40i because of DAPP. To me, it's just that necessary.

If I was the OP, I personally would have removed B&W and added DAPP. (Less stress driving > Amazing Audio, although some could argue that Amazing Audio = Less Stress Driving!)

But at the end of the day it's all about personal preference. Test drive, check everything out, read the forum, make an informed decision, and enjoy!!!!

It's your money after all! We just want you to enjoy what you paid for!

Glad to see how fast this moved for you. A month is great timing. Hoping mine falls into place like that.

umzzy · 02-22-2021, 04:27 PM

Well I just got an update today that my car was never picked up from the VPC on Saturday because they had to switch carriers. All the bad weather has been causing delays. Still waiting for a new carrier as of 5pm today 😭😭😭

Just having fun following the status updates. Must share at least a couple photos when you pick up the X5.
