MY 2105 additional colours
I am new to this forum and have found it very useful in deciding the options for my new order.
I have ordered the following: BMW X5 M 50 D F15 A96 Mineral White LCSW Black Dakota Leather ZNS Connected Drive, 2V9 468 M Alloys,2VP Adaptive Dynamic Suspension, 320 , 3DZ Model Des deletion, 3AC,233 Tow bar, 3AG Revering Camera, 402 Sunroof, 420 Sun Protection Glass, 430 Ext mirrors folding, 456 Comfort Seats, 552 LED Headlights, 5DL Surround View, 610 HUD, 688 HK, 6AR Internet, 6NS Enhanced Bluetooth. My build week is 32, which is the first week for MY 2015 ie 4th August 2014. I still have about 4 weeks to make changes. I wanted black nappa leather but this is not available. I do not like any of the brown leathers but want something as soft as nappa and a darker colour to contrast with the exterior colour Mineral White. There are 3 new leather colours available in BMW Individual Merino Leather from 1st August 2014 ie Smoke White, Nutmeg and Taupe. ( also new individual exterior colours are Azurite Black and Pearl Silver )I thought that Taupe may be a possibility . It looks like a grey on the dealer configurator. Has anyone seen this colour ? BTW the public configurators according to BMW Individual in Germany are being updated today for MY 2015. I just tried the UK one and you cannot configure at present so perhaps they are updating it as we speak. Any comments on my build and whether I should change to Taupe Merino Leather would be greatly appreciated. |

The config has been updated although I ordered based on the spec it shows in March and my build is in two weeks. This provided the Tyre Pressure Monitor ( I think) Driving Assistant and Heated Seats as standard. Also a small £200 increase in the cost of the car. My dealer thinks it is MY2014.5 rather than 2015. |

Those extras got added to MY2014 in April I think, I'm getting them on mine when it's built later in June and it's definitely a MY2014.
MY2015 was a different set of extras like improved auto transmission software which reduces CO2 emissions and some extra interior trim options I think. |

No 8TH speed limit display? I might be wrong but I had understood from some other posts that this was well worth combining with the HUD. If I were you I would trade it against the 6AR internet...

I've ordered my pair of trim pieces for the lower front grilles, my dealer has agreed to paint and fit them during the PDI. (items 6 & 7 on the attached pic) This mod transforms the look of the M Sport front end IMO - particularly where the car is painted in light colors (the two huge black blanked off lower grilles look dreadful) it's a real shame BMW onlt fit them as standard on the M50d.

@worsy - If you want to send me the last 4 digits of your VIN I'll see if I can work out if it's due for build about the same time as mine (PM me if you want)

Hi Catflap, the trim pieces you mention for the lower grill on the M Sport did you order those from BMW or ...?. Thanks I have the same problem as was looking at the SE model because of the M Sport front end.

You can see on the attached graph that the rate over the past month is pretty constant - the chaps at Spartanburg are doing a cracking job! (the Y-axis is the last 5 digits of the VIN) I was originally told that mine was due for production next week though it seems things have moved forward a few days.
