What the left hand giveth ....

my guess would be that Sunroof will be included in base car.
Although I am guessing that price of the car may reflect that.
I wonder if Comfort access be now part of Premium package, at least thats where speculation is.

Nope, here is the ZPP from a 2008 order spec:

ZPP Premium Package Blocked
319 Universal Garage Door Opener Blocked
430 Auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors Blocked
488 Lumbar support Blocked
493 Storage package Blocked
4NA Digital compass mirror Blocked
563 Ambient light package Blocked
639 BMW Assist

Greg, since you have all this info, do you know if sunroof is even an option?
I placed an order for a car with Prem package hoping it would have the pano roof, I dont want to get screwed and get the car without sunroof at all.
Do you know if anything else in options got changed up? Ipod adapter as an option or possibly part of base car as Audi did on Q7?

We saw an X5 with this interior at the local E70 launch here in Stuttgart. It is definitely striking, but it's also definitely more orange than brown. I'm still thrilled with the tobacco we chose...it's gorgeous!

Still, I'm glad they are offering more options. I wonder if this means they'll offer new exterior colors as well?

Here's the deal, I have a couple of printouts of "actual" 2008 4.8i orders from a local dealer. It shows the pano roof as no longer being a part of ZPP, but it also shows it as a "separate" option in the option list. Here's the kicker, since prices are not yet listed, we don't know if it is a "no cost" option or not, and we won't know until 2008 pricing is released. My speculation is that it is a no-cost standard feature now.

iPod adapter remains unchanged as a $400 option as far as I can tell.

Hopefully, between LemansX5 and myself, we will have more information by the end of today .

Now that Nav is standard on the 4.8 at least, I'm really interested in what they are going to charge for the Technology package now, $700-$1000? We shall see.

We will keep you informed as new info. becomes available.
