Nice - that was really quick! It seems plausible you could have your car by the end of February if timing went a smooth as your entry to production. I'd plan on early to mid-March though as a reasonable. Or if you have luck like me.. plan on early-mid April. ;D
Good luck! |

Enjoy the process, and when she comes in enjoy it in good health! You did two spec options I heavily debated (brown leather and shadow line exterior) on a TBII paint. I am very eagerly awaiting pictures once she's delivered!! |

TB II paint Black Nappa leather Fine line ridge wood Red calipers Black 19" 845m rims Exec pack (standard HK sound) Drivers assist plus pack Park assist pack Front/rear heated seats Heated wheel Front ventilated seats Front massaging seats Only options I didn't end up getting were: Dynamic handling BW sound Anthracite headliner Leather dash Space saver spare Pretty happy with my choices except I sorta regret the sound system. And I'm torn on my leather. Happy with black, but wonder if the dark brown would have been more fun. Had it been a cognac nappa, that would have been a no brainer. My last car was a 2018 440xi 6MT with red leather. So a jazzy leather was def up my alley |

We took delivery of our 2021 Tanzanite Blue M550 last month. Last Saturday was a beautiful day for a drive and some Napa Valley wine tasting. It was Silver Oak Winery's 2016 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon release day. The pancetta, sage and fontina cheese pizza was amazing with the Cab. As you can see, the Tanzanite really pops in the sun. You're going to love the color and get many compliments.

I went with the Black Nappa Leather and Grey Poplar Wood Trim. Plus Dynamic Handling, Shadowline, Parking Assistance and Executive packages. 19" 845M wheels with performance run flats. Also got the Space-saver spare because I have almost new all season 19" non-run flats from our 2018 M550 lease return. I'm not happy that BMW eliminated the CD player in the LCI. Here's a couple photos of the interior and dash.
