Websites with Option Visibility

I have been trying to find an X5 xdrive40i with the options I want by looking at dealer websites or Autotrader, etc. The dealer websites listing of options on a specific car is sometimes non-existent, sometime sparse or questionably incomplete. I have never seen a car 40i with the optional 2-axle air suspension. Do you know of a website that provides complete option package visibility???

Also, I was just messing with the X5 configurator (for the 300th time) and noticed an optional paint color that I haven't seen previously: Sparkling Brown Metallic

It probably will be hard to find one with air on a lot but probably doable if you want to travel. The dealer websites should have the vin for each vehicle so you could use mdecoder to see what options they have. You may also want to try cars.com with a search keyword.

I don't believe mdecoder works for us in the US.

It has been working for us for the last few months. They evidently fixed the problem.

Mdecoder works fine for my X5, U.K. order but obviously US manufacture.

That's the only place I have found that does work, the usual sites I have tried don't seem to like X cars, it seems.

I've tried and it doesn't work. Says I've reached my daily limit, which of course is hogwash.
Maybe another link?

No, it is the same one I always have used. https://www.mdecoder.com


Make sure you clear all your history and cookies. They still may be in there for when they were having problems/trying to charge.

Here is a decode I just ran:

Searching new or used? It is a PIA that window stickers aren't shared on websites the vast majority of times on BMWs. Other brands often readily post window stickers online. There are a couple of different tricks to try depending on new or used. The most time intensive is grabbing VINs and checking them.

cars.com allows you to input key words in your search. its the only one i have been able to use to find listings with "air suspension" as i have been looking for a m50i with it.
