Checked my build this morning and BMW happened to release the color for the configurator when submitting a build at the dealer level. I don't believe the color as actually released on BYO on bmwusa.com, but you can check out Canada's site to preview it if needed. Just in case anyone was waiting for the color release like I was!

Glad to see someone ordering MSport with the Alcantara seats. We think they are awesome looking and looking forward to our Portimao Blue X1 which is on a boat right now traveling across the Atlantic.

Do you happen to know the part numbers for the accessories on your order - Mats, Hub Caps, Projectors... Our dealership did discuss those with us when we placed our order.

I honestly didn't even realize the alcantara was an option. I just assumed it was black sensatech without contrast stitching for a solid month after I submitted my build. Glad I realized, because I'm a huge fan of the alcantara, even if it does mean black seats.


from what the configurator is telling me, the part numbers are as follows:

VIA Code: S0Z20
VIA Description: Luggage Compartment Mat
Part Numbers: 51475A50923

VIA Code: S0ZD9
VIA Description: Black All Weather Floor Mats
Part Numbers:
51475A2DA74
51475A2DA75

VIA Code: S0ZGC
VIA Description: Floating Hub Caps
Part Numbers: 36122455268

VIA Code: S0ZJ8
VIA Description: LED Door Projector
Part Numbers: 63312463924

I'm not sure if shopbmwusa.com has those listed or not. For some reason, the website doesn't seem to be working for me at this time.

I know you work at a dealership, but was there any benefit for you to order the accessories with your vehicle? I search the part numbers and it seems you can source all these items from various online retailers and save quite a bit of money.

I get wholesale cost. It ends up being around $600 for all of them. You might be better off sourcing them elsewhere, but you could see what your dealer will do.

Which trunk mat is that? There's two listed on the BMW USA website, one for reclining rear seats and one without, and I'm not sure if mine has the sliding rear seats (Premium & M Sport package). Been hard to find concrete info on if the US models are coming with the sliding rear seats or if they only recline.

I’ve read the US will not get sliding seats. Of course, I could be wrong

This is correct. They'll only be reclining. I'm not 100% sure which mat it is as the part number in the build screen doesn't match anything on shopbmwusa.

Really? Where did you see that?

[McTricky]

I haven't. Just speculating on what possible changes and options will be available once rollout picks up.

My week 53 production date got pushed up quite a bit today:

This color and Space Silver are now live on the US Build Your Own page.

Space Silver might be my new favorite color!

Man, I'm so glad I didn't wait for Blue Bay Lagoon. I'm not paying $1,200 for paint color lol. It looks great, but can't justify the added cost when I'd be just as happy with Portimao Blue. That Space Silver looks really good though, wonder how it looks in person?

Yeah that's understandable, it seems weird to me that blue bay is more expensive. I'd think that between the two, Portimao blue would be the more expensive one. I do love Portimao blue, but I've seen so many m340's in that color that at this point I'm kind of over it.

If it looks that good in the configurator, it has to look awesome in person.
