thank you.
Execuhitch. About 800 bucks installed with no lighting (just a 2" receiver). Looks great, works great for hauling bikes (which is what I use it for). The price is ridiculous, but, it's cheaper than the BMW option and better looking, so, if that's what you want to do, that's probably one of the best recommendations. I think there are other (reasonably priced) options if you don't have the M package. A tow bar should be about 100 bucks or so, another 100 bucks or so to install. The BMW one is totally out in left field for how much it costs...
