I'm going to try not to sweat this incoming...

I did not "order" this car, it's a dealer stock on its way, and I've got dibs on it.

Mine, mine, mine, mine!

2023 M550ix in Skyscraper Grey with Black Nappa, a few packages. My only "gotta haves" were the nappa and premium, so I'm good. In a perfect world it would be in a different color with leather dash and no other options except a spare tire, but allocations are impossible to find these days.

It's currently status 193, which means that it's on the port waiting for a ship.

Hopefully that will give me enough time to sell the B7 before it arrives, so that I can do better than wholesale.

Wish me luck!

I'm going to do my best not to check the status on it 5 times a day.

Thank you, yes, I do. I even "built" it on the configurator so that I could see how it looks. Link here.
2023 M550i xDrive Sedan $79,900
Design Shadowline $500
Exterior Skyscraper Grey metallic

19" M Y-spoke bicolor Jet Black wheels, style 845M with all-season rft

Black Nappa Leather with contrast stitching $1,000
Fine Wood open-pored Ash Grain Trim with Pearl Chrome Accent

Driving Assistance Professional Package $1,700
Executive Package $1,700
Parking Assistance Package $800
Front ventilated seats $500
Heated Steering Wheel $200
Delete hands-free tailgate operation -$100

Destination & Handling $995
Total Price (MSRP) $87,195
If I had ordered the car, other than a different color, I would have added the leather dash and omitted the DAPP, gotten just the premium instead of executive package, specified the spare tire kit, and skipped the ventilated seats which don't (IMHO) do anything. And probably skipped the parking assistance, because I know how to park and a $50 dash cam works fine. But none of that stuff is so offensive to me that it's going to stop me from buying the car.

they got rid of the premium package, I think only the executive package exists now.

You appear to be correct. Thanks. That makes me feel a little better.

And maybe the DAP is better than it was on the last car that I had with it... oh heck, it has to be, it sucked so badly.

Size:  885.8 KBI have a similar story my 6 year old audi was falling apart and couldnt find anything I liked local. Found a Berdina grey a few states away that was built in Germany but on hold for the radio chip. It ultimately took 5 months to get it worth the wait.

It's on a boat! I don't know which boat or how many stops it's going to make, but it is certainly progress.

@eliphil I love that Berdina Grey, congrats! A buddy of mine ordered a M340i which sat around for a few weeks early this year waiting on RAM as well, it drove him crazy. Hopefully we are past that bottleneck.
