2011 Facelift X5: Official Thread with Pics & Press release and M-sport pics

[pgaX5]

Hey Guys,
Just got back from placing order...sure enough, Jet black is a special order and not available yet. Ours will be third week of April for June arrival. It was a bit of a whirlwind and I wasn't able to really go through the ordering guide with prices, but here's what I do remember:

Xdrive 35i Premium - Comes with Style 334 19" Wheels, which I haven't seen in person
Tech Package - $3,100 (2010 was $2,600)
Comfort Access - $1000
Multi-Contour Seats - $1300
Sirius- $350
Convenience - $2000 (i think)

We lost the Holiday Credit by passing on the 2010 we previously ordered, but the final and the MSRP of the 2011 was almost $2000 more than the 2010 equipped with the same options. So it looks like it cost me $4500 + whatever less favorable lease rates I'm expecting to go to the N55 & 8-speed auto from the XDrive 30. It hurts, but I think I would have been really unhappy had we taken delivery of that car. At least my CA is honoring our $1000 over invoice deal.

If anyone has actual pics of 19" style 334 wheels, please post! I've seen the ones in the ordering guide for Europe and they look alright to me.

2011 US Order Guide. It shows no M Package for the Diesel. Can they install the M Exterior Parts at the Port ?

Interesting...packages are significantly different from the 35i guide.

You rock!!!Finally something in writing for the US!!!
Overall it seems BMW cut back on some things like heated rear seats as part of the cold weather and actually increased prices on some....Overall Id say price hike..if this is any indication they will jack up the rates on teh lease offers initially untill sales get hurt...ud think they would learn from the past few months...good lease deals , Eco credit helped them boost sales over the past few months otherwise they were wayyy low in the numbers compared to last year!

Interesting on the 35i---you can get the M Sport with 20's but the Sport pack that is available on the 50i you can't get on the 35i.

So did you order Jet Black? Or is June the time line for colors that are available? I ask because I will be ordering soon and my lease is up in may. Congrats on the order though Cant wait to get into the dealer myself and start checking boxes

Yes, ordered Jet Black. Was the 2nd person today, apparently! My CA says f or some reason, BMW rolls out available colors sequentially.

Thanks & good luck!
