Car ordered! Coming back to the family...
Well after 3 X5's I decided to cheat and got an XC90. After 3 years I realized I really am just a BMW guy. The XC90 is beautiful inside and out but the running gear (4 cylinder turbo & supercharged) just doesn't live up to the rest of the car. That and the fact that the Sensus (infotainment) system is buggy and slow. I am sure they will figure it out with the next generation. Anyway here is my car & deal in case people need data points...
2019 X5 40i M-Sport Phytonic Blue Coffee Vernasca Poplar Matte Interior Trim 21" Rims 3rd Row Seats + Air Suspension Premium Package Driver Assistance Professional M Sport Brakes Comfort Seats HK Stereo Acoustic Glass MSRP - $76,270 Negotiated Price - $69,630 (8.7% discount) 36mo/12k mile lease .00165 Money Factor (7 MSD's buy it down to .00130) $1000 Down Payment (Mostly money from BMWCCA rebate). Lease Payment is $888.20/month including taxes. Couple of notes: 1. I was really on the fence regarding Laserlights. At the end of the day I decided the benefit is minimal to me. I live in a big city so not many dark roads. The different angel eye did not really justify the increase in cost. I figure the Feds will work out allowing laserlights in maybe 3 years when it will be time to order a new one. 2. I was on the fence regarding the luxury seating package. Comfort seats were a must have and generally I really like the ventilation. But the massage wasn't important and I have read conflicting reports on how good the ventilation works. At the end of the day it just wanted important enough to me. 3. I was dubious about the third row based on information here. However I spoke with the Sales Manager who stated that BMWUSA is allowing a limited amount of X5's to be ordered with the third row. I got an email today that the District Manager was in the store and 100% confirmed a few 3rd rows are being allowed to be built. Mine being one of them. We will see if I actually get a production number etc. I am hopeful. Worst case I wait to order a 2020 at the same pricing which isn't horrible. Let me know if you have any questions.

No matter what, a 6 cylinder engine is just so much more refined than any 4pot will ever be. Congrats on the new car, epic colour you chose! |
