I'm guessing that will be mine as well since the car was just dispatched from factory - full merino black with "headliner in matching upholstery color." I'm not sure what I think about the ivory; difficult maintenance comes immediately to mind, followed by wondering if it will look like an ice cream sandwich. But open mind - would brighten the interior....

I think the ivory alcantara headliner would look really high end with the black full merino.

Would be interesting to know the color of the cargo area floor and sides, as well as the interior of the rear hatch with the ivory headliner....

Thanks - very helpful! White cargo area would have been a show-stopper.

my x7 arrived at the dealership over the weekend and I’ve noticed that I forgot to add the xd5 option to the build. I’ve received the ivory alcantara probably by default. My interior is full black merino. But looking back at the anthracite it’s lighter than my black leather. Maybe it’ll work out as I get used to looking at it.

Now I am confused. Are you saying your build included 776, anthracite Alcantara? And you recieved a white headliner? I was under the impression that XD5 triggers the white headliner.

What ever came of this? I assume you have received your machine by now?

It must be different in Canada because in the US the Alcantara headliner is black for black Merino. The XD5 option can only be ordered when ordering the Ivory and Ivory/Blue interiors in which case the headliner is white and blue respectively.

Correct. The part that is so very infuriating is that BMW Canada only just put the 2020 models up on the configurator. So there was no way to know this as until either you received the car....or you just happened to see it online now.

Can I just tell the dealer to order me a new one? Never been down this road before. Is this color combo fine?

You never know, you may like the looks of it. I think some brands routinely use white headliners no matter what color the seats are. If you don't like it you can always refuse to accept it, I assume that can be done there.

Sorry if I'm not following but I'm confused. Did you get the excellence package and the Alcantara is white by default? Have you got the car yet? Which dealer did you purchase from?

Hi. To answer your questions:

- No. I selected the packages and options separately but the colour of the headliner was supposed to be "matching the interior".
- No.
- A dealer in the lower mainland.

Ok yeah, figured out the individual package thing on the headliner after I posted, was worried I'd somehow end up with white too!
You don't want to say which dealer?
