Ordered X3 xDrive28i with N20 today!
I pulled a trigger today on a 2013 28i for my wife. Dealer said to expect delivery in the end of April/beginning of may. Got my production number also but it takes about a day for order to appear in the system! Very excited! Actually more than my wife even though it's her car!
specs: 2013 X3 xDrive28i Mineral Silver Metallic paint (A14) Premium Package (Oyster Leather LUCX, Brushed Aluminum Trim 4AD) ZPP Cold Weather Package (ZCW) Comfort Access Keyless Entry (322) MSRP: $44,595 (including $895 destination) UPDATE: Based on recommendations I got from you guys I added Convenience Package (ZCV) which adds Comfort Access Keyless Entry (322), Rear manual side window shades (417), Xenon headlights (522), Adaptive light control (524) which was only extra $800 since I had Key as a stand-alone option. So it is: 2013 X3 xDrive28i Mineral Silver Metallic paint (A14) Premium Package (Oyster Leather LUCX, Brushed Aluminum Trim 4AD) ZPP Cold Weather Package (ZCW) Convenience Package (ZCV) MSRP: $45,395 (including $895 destination) Last edited by stactum; 03-26-2012 at 09:39 PM.. |

I was thinking about xenons, but honestly, my wife doesn't care and I felt we should just stick to the list of options she'll be using. With BMW packages it's very easy to go nuts and get bunch of stuff that is nice to have but not mission critical. |

2nd Xenons, it's a must if you are doing any night time driving. Congrats, 7% off MSRP is a great deal

Congrats and welcome to the F25 club
As others have said xenons should be considered they make the vehicle stand out and much better visibility at night and during bad weather. |

Congrats. There definitely seems to be a lot of future MY13's being ordered.
I have to say as well the xenons really add something to the vehicle, unless you are really just trying to keep the overall cost down. |

I agree with all you, guys.
I have xenons on my car and I wouldn't want to have one without it, however I have hard time convincing my wife that it worth extra $800 (we get keyless entry, so to add convenience package will only be extra $800). We do try to keep the cost down and include only features that she'll be using. If it would be up to me - xenons would be part of it no questions asked, but how do I convince her that it's something worth extra? |

Have her test drive one with them and without them at night and she'll be sold.

Delivery Date Seems Unrealistic
We just ordered one this week as well and are being told to expect it toward the end of June. They are still producing 2012 models. I don't see how they would wind 2012's down, change the line over, start production and deliver vehicles within 4 or 5 weeks. Seeing that we ordered within days of one another I don't think that our status in the production que would explain the discrepancy between what we are being told. Do you have any other info from your dealer that might be able to explain the time difference?

I had a 325 at that time, and got a loner with xenon’s when it was in the shop. One nighttime drive was all it took for both of us to agree that our future cars would have xenons. For us it’s not a luxury, but a real safety factor. |
