Couldn't disagree more. I like the chrome, I think it looks classy. I am in the shadowline looks like sunglasses camp.

It’s interesting that it’s not all chrome, the vertical slats are black in the grill. I’m not sure what I like more. On the UK configurator the all black shadow line looks pretty good to me. I’d like to see non shadow line on a better color car…….

Hate the chrome... if the shadowline package comes w a chrome grille someone seriously messed up.

Thank you for sharing the order guide.
Looks like ventilated seats cannot be had with sensatec even though the new sensatec is perforated. Bummer…

Yeah I agree. It makes no sense. Seems like another arbitrary forced upgrade, like the requirement for leather for heated rear seats.

Order for my X3 M40i has been placed!
Wireless charging is not available for the foreseeable future but all other options were able to be added including the HK audio system. The dealer also indicated that features like the updated Bluetooth were all added to the build and those had been left out of builds up until now, so hopefully this indicates that things will be getting better. |

BMW was probably holding back parts from the pre-LCI X3's to stockpile for the X3 LCI launch. I believe I read that PC graphic cards supply is also improving, which might not necessarily signal the end of the chip shortage (I think that's slated to last for a few years), but perhaps things won't be as bad as they have been. |

If you are willing to share... Also, curious, any hesitation about buying the car without being able to physically sit in it or see it? Last edited by pinto2515; 06-25-2021 at 10:28 AM.. |

About the SensaTec Dashboard, why are you not choosing that? Does it come with extra stitching, looks more premium, and since it's SensaTec a softer feel than the soft touch plastic? I did a search but didn't find a ton of info. Last edited by Matt 335is; 06-25-2021 at 03:38 PM.. |

On pre-LCI it also included a speaker grill in the dash center, even without the HK option, although there was no speaker under it without the HK. Guess it was cheaper to just produce one type. On the plastic dash, the speaker area was just an indentation from cars I've seen, but don't know if this becomes a speaker if HK is added. I guess personal taste but looks better to me. |

If I order Vernasca leather and SensaTec Dashboard. I will get extra contrast stitching across the dashboard and door caps. Or does that stitching already come with the Vernasca leather option? |

Mineral White on M40i
I noticed in order guide that mineral white was included on base X3 but not on X3 M40i. I'm hoping this is a typo. I would be surprised that X3 had more exterior options than X3 M40i. The same was true on X4 M40i.
I did a search on forum as well as Google but was unable to find anything conclusive. |

I discussed it with my friend at the dealer and while it does look nice we decided it wasn't worth the added cost for me. There's no functional benefit to it and to me the aesthetic difference didn't really do much for me. Also, I was already adding all the other features and felt like keeping off that would some semblance of restraint. 😂
