Crap. That basically pays for the difference between the 3.0 gasoline engine and the diesel engine. I would have delayed my order by a month if I'd known that. I chose to spend my money on extra amenities, instead of the motor.

Can anyone confirm that the factory is offering this incentive right now? I am negotiating to order a new X5 & my dealer doesn't know anything about it; only the $4500 on the 335d.

I've seen it mentioned a couple of other places. This time last year BMW was doing big discounts on the X5 also.

Heck of a deal if you do not want to new iDrive.

Thanks for the comments, biggie. I just can't find anything official anywhere, and my dealer is apparently holding out on me. For $4500 I'll put up with software that takes a little longer to learn; my last BMW was an '04 545i and I didn't mind that iDrive. It seems to me to be a minor imperfection in an otherwise stellar rig.

Sadly BMW rarely officially posts those types of deals. They are "marketing support" types of things. When I took advantage of the deals last summer my sales guy wasn't aware of the discounts and had to do some digging.

Oh dear, does this mean Americans still won't buy diesels? I guess I can kiss my dream of more diesel-powered BMWs goodbye.

Well, if it makes you feel any better there's about to be one more American driving one (me).
