So.....brian5, Investor, or anyone else for that matter, if you know anything more about this please respond in this thread with more details.
brian5......can you find out from your dealer (who I presume was the person who told you that SB is "available on a limited basis" exactly what he means and how does one go about ordering one. Assuming he was correct about the availability of SB on a limited basis I would assume that he would know how to process that order or who to contact at BMW NA to get it done. Would he be willing to provide that info to you so that you can share it with the rest of us. We are all spread out around the country and can't all buy our E70's from him, so if he can share the knowledge many of us would greatly appreciate it.
<<snip>> Again, if anyone has more info on ordering SB please share it in this thread from now on so that all the info is in the same thread instead of being buried in multiple threads.
Thanks in advance to all who participate....

When I went to my CT dealer to place my order on Oct 8th, they did not know anything abotu the SB option and questioned that that option was available. I got my dealer to do a search on ordered X5's and they actually found at least one that had been ordered with SB option. They showed it to me in the BMW ordering system. They then became believers. They looked into it a bit more for me, and came back with the response that the SB was in limited supply and will probably delay my order if I wanted it. At that stage, I'd already changed my mind from White/Saddle Brown to Grey/Black so they had no reason to "give me a story". That's all I know. I can't confirm that it is actually had "limited availability" but I can confirm that were order/s in the BMW system with that option.
