540i MPPSK port install

Hi All,

Ordered a 2018 540i (luxury line) which is at the Bremerhaven port. I contacted my CA and asked if the MPPSK could be port installed when it arrives. At first it was no problem but I’m now being told that I cannot add MPPSK unless I had an M sport. Is this true?

If it ends up being able to be port installed, what would be a fair price? If not, can it be added post delivery? How much would I expect to pay post delivery?

Thanks!

Mppsk requires m sport package and needs the rear bumper changed to the M550i rear bumper to fit the new exhaust tips. Can't be port installed as torque converter also needs to be changed....i tried hard to get mine port installed...but no go. Cost wise...$3900 total (exhaust, tips, bumper, tc, tune, and labor). I was quoted 4500 from a few dealers...but i got a good deal with what i paid. Fyi....mppsk transforms the 540i....makes it the car ot should be esoecially with standard 704 m suspension. I would cancel order and redo with m sport/mppsk if you can.

Just wondering why the torque converter needs to be changed, and what is different about it?

I would only do port install if you plan to lease it. Port installed options delay the car for a few more days and sometimes a week or more.
