X5 M50D - Ordered!

Well, it's official... My M50D is ordered!

Apparently the engine is being discontinued, so I'm especially happy to have gotten my order in. Not sure if the car will be produced as a 2020 or 2021, but it will be one of the last M50Ds.

Here are my build specs:

Black Sapphire Metallic
Ivory Full Merino Leather Interior
22" 742 M in Black
Active Rear Wheel Steering
Air Suspension
Integrated Garage Opener
Cooled/Heated Cupholders
Sun Protection Tinting
Soft Close Doors
Acoustic Glass
Storage Package (electric cargo cover, etc.)
Panoramic Moonroof
Ventilated Seats
Comfort Seats
Crafted Clarity crystal shifter
M Seatbelts
Extended Heated Seat Package/Cold Weather package
Extended Leather Dash
BMW Individual Piano Black Trim
4 Zone Climate
Ambient Air
Massage Seats
Parking Assistant Plus
Drive Recorder
Night Vision
Individual Black Alcantara Headliner
Extended Exterior Shadowline Trim
Innovation Package (not sure if it's called that in the US, includes Laser lights, Comfort Access, Driving Assistant Professional and HUD)
Entertainment Package (Harmon Kardon Audio, Wireless Charging, Wi-Fi)

Long list, but I think I'll be more than pleased with the car.

I decided AGAINST the Sky Lounge (too cheesy IMHO) and B&W Audio. I would have loved the Audio but couldn't justify it. I'll just have to make sure I never ride in a B&W equipped X5 now...

Not looking forward to the wait, but here are some pics to hold me over:

I had Oyster (also very light) interior on my 750i and didn't have problems with it. Just had to make sure to clean and condition regularly. That being said, I don't wear much raw denim anyways. It's like having white sneakers: regular spot cleaning is much easier than having to "rescue" them down the road.

In this case is that option ideal

Congrats on your order, can I ask when they are looking to deliver your car?

I ordered on the 4th June and getting the end of September also a M50d.

My order went in around the same time I believe. I also got last week of May as a delivery date. Unfortunately, in Berlin, the current wait for registration (getting plates approved and registered) takes around 6-7 weeks. I'm trying to find a way around that, but it's not looking good. Other German states do it in 2 days.

OMG! don't want to give to much away but you will like the car.....

I have driven about 30 miles after getting the car which was a slight problem with payment, but once sorted and paid for the car I was away and I had a very big grin.

Cant wait to upload some pics on here and wait to see some pics of your car too.

Thanks! Just got the call from the dealer today. The car is there. BUT, and its a BIG BUT (10 yr olds don't laugh) -- apparently BMW is having some internal network issues or something, and they can't release the paperwork for me to get the car registered, which needs to happen BEFORE I pick it up.

This wait is KILLING me man!
