DHP has done wonders for our F10 550i xDrive and I would not purchase another BMW without it - it's really that good.
Well it appears it's only you, me, and Cavman who are advocating and fans...no wonder BMWNA isn't offering it on the 40i! Haha j/k

At this point, I'm more eager to find out why it isn't being offered. It's gotta be a misprint??

Any client advisors around NH_F36 who can speak of the accuracy of newly released ordering guides on a brand new model? From your experience, have revisions been made to the guides up until SOP??

I think I could eventually convince my wife to go with the 50i (it's her car after all ), but as I mentioned in an earlier post above, I'd be foolish to get the 2019 X5 50i, when the following model year, it morphs into the 2020 M50i. It's not that I have to jump into a new BMW this year, but the value of our 2018 X3 M40i will be just that much less.

[*]Both G05 X5 and G07 X7 xDrive50i will replace their launch version of N63 (456hp) with the same new 530hp engine and become X5/X7 M50i. Here's finally your explanation why they were sticking with "xDrive50i": "M50i" was reserved for the more powerful engine.[/list]
