Ordered 2016 X5d M Sport..again!
Hello again,
Some of you know me, and may remember I had ordered one of the last few 2015 diesels back in October 2015 and I ended up not taking delivery of it when it arrived to the dealer in November 2015 as I was unsure about the whole diesel issue, and wanted to know what was happening with the 2016 models. Well, the time has come and I placed an order for a 2016 this time. Car is status 112 right now and production should begin sometime this week I hope. Should arrive to Serpa BMW by the end of May. Here are my specs: 2016 BMW X5 xDrive35d Black Sapphire Metallic with Terra Dakota Leather Fineline Oak Wood Trim M Sport Line - Sport Auto Trans w/Paddles - Adaptive M Suspension - M Sport Package - Without Exterior Lines Designation - Black High-Gloss Roof Rails - Comfort Seats Front - Ceramic Controls - M Leather Steering Wheel - M Aerodynamics Package - High-Gloss Shadow Line - Anthracite Roofliner - High Speed Maximum w/ Perf. Tires - 20inch M Double-Spoke LT Alloy, Mixed Tires Premium Package Enhanced - Driving Assistant - Harman/Kardon Sound System - Universal Remote Control - Comfort Access - Soft Close Doors - Manual Side Sunshades - Lumbar Support - Storage Compartment Package - Heated Seats Rear - Automatic 4-Zone Climate Control - Lights Package - Active Blind Spot Detection - Active Protection - Surround View - Head-Up Display - SiriusXM Satellite Radio Tuner - BMW ConnectedDrive Services Package LED Lighting Package - Active LED Headlights - LED Fog Lights - High-Beam Assistant Stand Alone Options - Park Assistant - Speed Limit Info

Very nice build. Congratulations! We have a 35d ordered as well. I'm scheduled for build week 23 (6-10 June). In Germany so not expecting delivery till mid-July. Looking forward to hearing how much you like it.

Perhaps its because the 40e has less allocations for production? Not sure though. When did you place your order?

Sure you will love the car. We got one of the last 2015 diesel and absolutely love it. Never under 25 mpg in the city!

As if there weren't enough already, right
Any local Toronto guys who can hook up a fellow Torontonian with some coding? Want to do a couple of the common things??

If you're still 112 you have time to add DHP to a nice build.
Seriously, think about it, I know you've read the threads about it here. No regrets!

Well at least it gives us time to change our config multiple times! Already thinking about adding ACC + Stop+Go for the traffic here in Toronto! |

Question regarding your 2015 order: I'm assuming you left a deposit with the dealership to order the car- Did you receive a refund when you didn't accept delivery? My car is scheduled to arrive next week but I wonder if I don't accept it, would the dealership refund my deposit?

I made a big fuss about it, and basically told them that out of principal I would walk away from the $1000 deposit and not give them another order vs letting them hold me hostage like that. Basically, my outlook was..you can keep my $1000 but I won't give you another $80k and allow you to sell me a vehicle and also mentioned that I would make sure no one in our family (we currently have 2 BMWs in the immediate family) would be buying another car from them. Needless to say, they refunded me. However, I didn't end up going back because one of my best friends started working at a different BMW dealership, so I obviously bought from him.

Nice build man, and a quick production slot as well. Well done. Be sure to post pics once it arrives.

Got the VIN a couple days ago...
Can anyone comment on how long it should take from here?? What number I can call to get a status update besides the dealership? I'm in Canada BTW.

Called BMW today, apparently it has been released to carrier? They couldn't give me a status number so I'm not sure what it means, but I suppose the production is complete?
Anyone have an idea of when I can expect my truck to arrive based on this?
