I found out the buy out today on the Q7 and if I buy it now I only save $270 so I am debating whether to buy it now or just wait until September.

BTW it seems you can still order BMW's and the wait isn't too bad.

Alan, your M550 has a TU version of the N63. Same engine in a M50 X5 or X7. BMW has been using the N63 V8 since 2008. Allegedly a new V8 is in the works.

Yes, no issues ordering a new BMW, but quite a bit of decontenting is still going on with some customer’s orders arriving with items missing and with no advanced notice to the selling BMW Center from NA.
