Loving some of the leaks that are surfacing and certainly creating good chatter, but dying with anticipation of leaks on the M60i.

Anyone???

Hello guys,

I have order on M60i since december in system. today I was sitting with dealer (cool guy - very helpfull). They have already in system specification without pictures , not sure if all are in, or something will be added.
But for example no laser lights available. 22 rims available, very similar to X7 specifications.
For example it appeared to us - head up dispay standart as well rear steering axel.

Marina Bay blue is available and some new rims also…

Also I have been testing X7 M60i - great engine and lovely interior - very happy X5 will have same. Only issue i find is missing direct key for heating seats steering wheel or ventilated seats.

Keep in mind that options and features vary by country/region so those may be different. Obviously the engine specs will stay the same. You can find those on BMW's site for the X7 M60i.

Hi, i would like to help, but this was not printable…. In their system it has code and few starting letters from each item. Not possible to read or enlarge that column. As dealer knew codes - it was easy for him to orientate. And we coud add or delete codes - than my spec was printable. Based on colours of codes on my spec - we found what is standart and what option. As said look at x7 config - very simmilar - for example packet comfort (now with seats , arm rest and cup holders) sport m pro (blacked trims , sestbelts etc)

What was interesting that many options are standart or part with something else - gesture control, rear exle, soft close head up).

So i am very interested how final price will go up as it looks sever morr things will be standart for m60i.

And please do not take it for granted, we just looked fiirst time to this. But digital key and laser lights are gone for sure.

Hey Bart, I have a deposit with my dealer (as of yesterday) for a new M60 as well.

My lease is up in July, but better to be safe than sorry...

My dealer confirmed everything already stated; reveal is early February, production begins in April.

The European market has been able to reserve allocations since December however, so early production units may already be spoken for, for several weeks at least.

You can actually already see every option available, including new paint and wheel choices here:

https://directlease.be/fr/leasing/bmw/x5/m60i-xdrive/

I shouldn't say "see" as there are no photos, but you can basically Google everything (wheels, colors) if you're not sure what they look like.

Just be aware that the European market, even though they do have option packages, bundle options differently, and allow for more individual options to be ordered as "stand-alone".

I did notice that laser lights are gone, but full air suspension is back, as is acoustic glass (not sure if this ever went away in Europe).

Anyway, not sure how these options will translate to our shores, but at least you'll be able to see what can be optioned, before even seeing a picture of the exterior/interior updates.

Do you know what color that is? Looks to be in between Phytonic and Tanzanite, might just be the photo though.

Edit- I think it’s Marina Bay blue

That is likely Marina Bay Blue. It is supposed to be available for the M60i.

Don’t disagree with your assessment, but my guess is Tazanite purely based on the color options being offered (link above) on the M60i abroad.

Just got my lease offer for the M60i in MBB. At the M50i list price plus 6,000€.

[Pabloh88]

It looks lighter than tanzanite, my guess is Marina. Does anyone know if the 50e will get the same color options as the 60?

MBB only for X5 M60i and X5 M in Germany.

No, it will not be offered on the 50e. The 50e colors will be:

Too bad, I love MBB but ordering a 50e.

You're saying that Tanzanite is offered in France but not Germany?

Tanzanite is offered in both. He is saying that MBB is only for the M60i and X5M, not the other models.

This was great! Thanks for sharing. Noticed a couple options, albeit abroad, that surprised me, such as the smart key which I think they did away with on the 40i. (could be wrong on that-?)

One option that jumped out was the Trailer Hitch with the Electronically Folding Ball, which raises some questions (if offered in the US):
1. for MY23 M50i you couldn't get both the DHP (ZDH) and the Trailer Hitch (3AC). It was one or the other. Thoughts that will again be the case with the M60i now that it retracts?
2. Anyone have experience with this feature and willing to share some insight?

Also-Are the 50-yr M Emblems (3MQ) gone? Don't think I saw that option on the above site. Makes sense if they are....I just liked them for $200.
