Order placed for 2020 M50i in Tanzanite Blue II - Added album with dealer pics

So, after almost a year of wanting to order a new X5 to replace my current aging X5, and struggling with the limited options or option restrictions provided by BMW Canada, I finally was able to put together a configuration that is about as close to what I wanted as I could get. I'm still frustrated by the idiotic rules that, for example, do not allow ordering a spare tire, or air suspension without rear wheel steering. A lot of what I wanted was standard in the M50i, so when they announced it, I was very happy since it really made the decision process much easier.

When the order was submitted, the production date came up as Week 45, but has since been changed to Week 41 (Oct 6 to 12). I'm being told that "ETA for delivery should be by Nov 9th latest and I think sooner. We will know more around October 17th."

Anyways, after many agonizing decisions, here it is;

MY2020 X5 M50i

C3Z Tanzanite Blue Metallic
VASW Black Extended Merino Leather
ZGT Premium Enhanced Package
2VF Adaptive M Suspension
319 Universal Remote Control
322 Comfort Access
323 Soft Close Doors
417 Side Sunshades
44A Heated and Cooled Cupholders
456 Comfort Seats, Front
4FL Travel and Comfort System
4HA Seat Heating, Front and Rear
4NB Auto 4-Zone Climate Control
5AZ BMW Laserlight Headlights
5DN Parking Assistant Plus w/Surround View
610 Head-Up Display
688 Harman/Kardon Sound System
6DR BMW Drive Recorder
6NW Wireless Charging w/Extended Bluetooth and USB
6WD WiFi Hotspot
1PQ 22" M Lt/Aly Wheels, Double-Spoke 742 M, Black, Perf. Non RFT
3DS BMW Display Key
418 Luggage Compartment Package
4A2 Glass Application 'Crafted Clarity' for Interior Elements
4KT Fine-Wood Poplar Grain Anthracite Brown Open-Pored Trim
7M9 High-Gloss Black Kidney Grille w/ Extended Contents

I really wanted TBII but it only became available in Canada sometime around May/June and by that time, I had already decided to wait to see what the MY2020 X5 would be like from an ordering perspective. Then I held off for a bit more to see what early production issues might arise, and I definitely prefer roof rails so that was an easy wait

BIG Thanks to everyone here that contributed by posting their own experiences. You've all helped with my decision and ordering process.

I ordered mine at the beginning of September, and the build week is 44. The wait is so hard. I ordered the car in Vancouver, where did you order yours? And what discounts did you get?

Toronto. Went through fleet sales, so I didn't go through the typical negotiation process nor did I have to deal with the sales or business manager option process.

Our cars might be on the same train heading to Ontario, Canada. Mine was ordered Sept 03, was assigned build week 40 but might have been built on week 39 and vehicle production status has been “in transit via rail” for almost 2 weeks when I called this week to BMW of North America to check status.

Amazing, congrats!

I'm looking at the same exterior and trying to decide between coffee and black for the interior. Love the way the TBII pairs with the shadow line trim.

Looks badass. I'm so obsessed with the black rims and the extended shadowline. Only way to go IMO
