I would imagine that you've seen some Phytonic Blue examples, but if you have not, you should definitely make an effort. I am a great lover of blue vehicles, and I know all the owners will disagree with me, but I was roundly underwhelmed by Phytonic. And I saw several examples, in different lighting. It's a perfectly reasonable medium blue metallic, but nothing remarkable.

I have delayed ordering a new X4 M40i, in large part because the options on the US "build your own" page have disappeared. Things like the shadowline package and the 21" wheels I want. But I see those options are available on, for example, the X4M.

Question for this thread: has anyone had any success in the last few months placing an order for a car with options NOT listed on the build-your-own page? If so, how did you do it?

Thanks!

I’m another fan of the blue, think the only negative is that it’s often very easy to see imperfection’s in the paintwork as the car ages.

Shadow line is orderable. 21 inch 718m wheels no. No Harmon Kardon. Wireless charging is shown as an option for first time in months today in the configurator.

I think they meant you can order shadow like at dealer but not yet on website. But, wireless charging is on website to order.

Would there be any status anyone has heard on the passenger lumbar delete? I'm reading about the HK system, wireless charging, and rim selection delete but no updates on the passenger lumbar delete.

I ordered my X3M40i in late January without the shadowline package. I found out about the option afterwards and had the dealer add on the option to our order before it went into production

Passenger lumbar delete has been happening for a while it sounds like. I know my build sheet specified that.

I know it has been like this for at least 6 months. I was questioning if anyone has heard any updates on this.

No worries. What a bummer regarding this. This is probably the feature that has been the longest out of availability.

I’d rather have HUD than passenger lumbar since I drive alone most of the time. Or even HK speakers. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll regret this purchase lol. Lead time on a GLC was around 6 mo and my warranty was up so wanted to get out of it, but I did enjoy the car.

Is heads up display not available? What package was that part of? I guess I didn't realize this.

GLC is going through a cycle change and am sure that's on delay.

Tbh I don’t know if it was included in premium 2 or if it was standalone for the x30 but I would have paid for it either way, along with HK audio.

Ah okay. I am looking to purchase the x3 M40i. I have heard the x3 30 is missing quite a number of features as well.
