2021 X5 Order

So my 2021 X5 xdrive40i order is in! Selected pretty much every option but didn't select the $150 option for air suspension. Though, according to my build is now part of the M Sport package?

I'm fine if I have it btw, but I'm just curious if anyone has any further info on this? Thanks all.

They probably added it by mistake. May turn out for the best given your 22" wheels. Make sure you are getting a spare tire as well.

Congratulations and hopefully the wait won't be too bad. Good luck, enjoy and be safe.

I'm thinking the same. I ordered the spare tire as well! Thanks for your response.

I agree with TurtleBoy
I recently ordered mine, got it delivered 2nd week of December. Added the spare tire option a few days after the order was submitted. My objective is to get rid of run-flats in few years when the tires are up for change. Make sure you check the wheel tools that should come with the spare. Mine had quite a few missing. The CA would keep telling me that since mine is run-flats, BMW does not supply any more. I called the BMW Genius line to check the fact, and they open a case and instructed the dealer service department to provide the missing ones. Someone from the dealer services showed up at my door a few days later with the tools and arranged it properly.

When in the stage can you get the spare tire added? Because of a mix up, they also sent my car to production with blue calipers instead of red and are telling me I cannot have the red added in production. What is the best way to deal with this?

If you have any priority 1 options (Merino, paint, etc.) then nothing should be able to be changed once the order is submitted. If you don't have those then you can make changes up until the time a VIN is assigned.

The best way to deal with that would depend on how important the red is to you? If it is a must have (and it was clearly their mistake) then you could just tell them you will not accept the vehicle without the red calipers since that is not what you ordered. They can either order you a new vehicle but what would probably be less expensive for them is to paint them for you and apply new decals. Of course they may say fine, go get one at another dealer.
