For those thinking of picking up a '14 M-Sport

Looks like any remaining 2014 allocations that aren't already spec'ed as an M-Sport cannot be modified to include the M-Sport package.This was discovered with my CA after countless attempts to do so...probably has something to do with remaining stock of current M-Sport bumpers as the redesigned 2015 rolls out.

My dealer local to me has one in Carbon Black if you're interested. 28i, black/black, loaded + premium sound.

We didn't care for the color so we built a Black Sapphire. Production started last Tuesday.

Thanks for the offer...we actually were able to modify an allocation that was already M-Sport, but only after finding all this out. Just wanted others who were considering to be aware of the tightening supply.

Hendrick BMW in Charlotte has 75 X3's in stock. It looks like 12 are M Sport.

I'm sure there are plenty available on dealer lots, but if you are like me, you want one optioned just the way you want it...a little OCD.

I just ordered a 2014 X3, Carbon Black, 35 with M-Sport Package on 2/15 with a build scheduled in early March (week 10). The only option I couldn't get was the around view camera.

Just so you know, my build was also scheduled for a week 10 production, but it started yesterday and is set to be complete Feb 25. Seems like they are fast tracking some of the priority-1 customer sold orders.

That's good to know. Mine was a conversion from a Priority-Stock order the dealer had in the queue already that was slated for build in week 10. I added the production number into MyBMW and now my concern is that it's showing the wrong color. Unclear to me if that's just because the config of that number was changed and it's not yet updated in their systems, or if there is a problem. I'll be watching rather closely in the coming days. Dealer is telling me production scheduled to complete on 3/10

Usually just an issue with the system updating. You could ask to see a VIR on the vehicle to confirm the correct options/colors. Mine was also a conversion from a stock order the dealer had...which seems to be the only way to get the M-Sport (customizing a stock order that already has M-Sport selected). Count yourself lucky!

I noticed the same thing when our X3 started production. It had me concerned for a few days, but status picture changed to the correct color after a few days.

Mine shows that it started production today and everything has indeed synched up on the website to accurately reflect the config I ordered. Interestingly, I wanted the Top View camera that's part of Driver Assistance but they were not able to add it when I ordered but he website is showing that option on the build page. I'm not getting my hopes up but it would be nice if they actually found a way to add that option after my initial order. It's a feature I've had on the Infiniti fx35 I'm replacing that I've really come to like.

The IVR is telling me it will be done on 3/5.

Our photo was white for a few days, we ordered Black. It changed and all is well.

It took we ordered the vehicle on Jan 30th, and it was at our dealer this past weekend. It's being delivered to our driveway right now actually. So we'll have something nice to come home to today lol
