Car was picked up yesterday. I purchased it Oct 28 with limited changes made to a dealer allocation for scheduled production wk47, week of Nov 29. Apparently, it was close to the modifications deadline cutoff. Previously changes were permitted up to two days before production. Dealer had delivery/inspection Dec 6. Thus there was no delay.

Fortunate and relived to get all my wants with no deletes other than expected 32Z Digital key and 48Z passenger lumbar support. The latter no credit, USA provides 100$. Interesting 493 Storage compartment package comes with only two anchors. My trade in x6 had four.

Congratulations! Good news!

P.S. It looks like I can get my car (week 49) in 2 weeks

Congrats and enjoy her!
Did you receive any credit for 32Z Digital key deletion?

Hope that changes soon. I was fortunate to get this, as it is my want. Canada is only 2000$, . I assumed many skipped this option, had this on previous cars. Surprised the delivery manager said many order this. A new customer was looking at my car, i said x3 is good, i recommended get this option, then the salesman said cannot be ordered, due to shortages.

Thanks, only put 20km so far... Me like so far, the technology has changed alot from my, 2018, and 2017. This is unlike other LCI, more substantial.

No credit, that's ok. I hope you get your with ALL the trimmings, pronto.

I ordered the MY22 X4 30i in mid-Oct and was expected to get it delivered to local dealership around Jan-Feb. Recently I was told by my CA that my order's production date has been delayed to January from December.

I was also told that a lot of dealerships are not taking any new orders until Mid-Feb next year.

Oh well, it's what it is.

What week was your production?

Awesome! Enjoy!

In case anyone needs a recent point of reference in terms of timeline, my allocation was slotted 11/10/21 and as of yesterday 12/16 it was dispatched from the plant and being relatively close, I expect it will be or has arrived at the dealer today.

So, given supply chain issues, things are still moving pretty well. AFAIK, the only deletes are digital key and passenger lumbar but nothing confirmed yet.

**EDIT** confirmed, arrived today.

32Z Digital Key, was not listed anywhere in the Canadian Pricing Guide (1 Aug 21) but 48Z (Removal of Passenger...) was.

I doubt that anybody in Canada would get money back that would show up on the invoice for those 2.

What exactly is the digital key delete? Does that mean you can’t use the app to remote lock unlock and start car?

No, nothing to do with the BMW App.


It just replace the physical key, not something that I would trust since if something happened to your phone you could be SOL I think.

I got $80…I’m sure much less than it actually costs

Congratz! the shadowline lights look amazing!

Fingers crossed you get your options - I think we got a bit lucky just because the shadowline package here is split into headlights and grill separately but sounds like yours is all together, so if one component is short, the whole package gets removed. Frustrating for sure.. but perhaps there is hope - because the grill seems to be coming back in stock at dealers so hopefully that means the factory gets them too!

Yeah they are subtle but you can definitely tell the differences, just see the pic of mine from the thread. It didn't catch the entire of front lights but you can still see them from the side. I am starting to regret a bit for not adding those to my build.

Your blue w/ black rims looks very sleek though - I prefer that to my white build - I just couldn't stomach the car looking like a$$ for 4-5 winter months (and I'm too lazy to wash constantly, especially when it's sub-freezing outside) so I stayed with safe old' white

For now, here is a picture in a garage. If I can get a better pic, outdoor with speed Limit, I will post later.

Thanks, the pricing guide only shows a $600 credit for HK delete on the 30i. I was at the dealer Thursday, he keeps saying how lucky i was being able to receive all my wanted items, he was working on a x5 quote for another customer, sadly it had three delete credits.

[Snave01]

FYI - I was able to confirm that mine arrived with touchscreen intact. Only deletes were the digital key and passenger lumbar. Shadowline grille was not on the build but when I go in to do the paperwork, etc. I'm going to make sure they include and install it when available at their cost since no credit is given for something that is supposed to be std.

Did some research on this and it sounds like a very common quip, but people typically say that BMW tells them it's 'within spec' and the best guidance is to adjust the height, rotation, and seating position to optimize for crispness. I have noticed that raising the HUD display higher does result in crisper imagery, but at the same time I don't like having it hanging out in the middle of my field of vision either. Will likely pick a spot somewhere in between with reasonably clarity but that's not too much 'in my face'..

Thanks for the f/up. BMW party line, within spec... Personally, for now I don't mind higher up, but I will try lower see if any degradation. Nice that they offer many adjustments, I tried rotate left, and I don't think it adjusted. Still unsure the purpose of off centre.
