I think that is really cool they included the camera's, it is so unBMW iike to not make you pay for it.

You must be really psyched to get this truck, the X7 is still pretty rare and having the big engine is something you never see, I didn't even know they had a bigger engine until you posted this thread.

Did you pick it up yet? Because I think Facebook is encouraging me to go buy it! (pretty sure this one is yours?)

Haha - yes we got it today. It's great so far. The four wheel steering is quite noticeable and makes the car feel smaller than it is. Good power and I appreciate the extra headroom and space. Seats are much better than in the F15 X5 it replaces.

I can't get waze or google maps to show up in the apple carplay screen - that's my only complaint so far.

And that does appear to be ours. Weird how they pop up in inventory even if they are ordered for a particular customer.

Where do you park something like that? Isn’t your house pretty urban?

We need pics !!!

Did Waze work in your X5 ? I can tell you it work in both our 340 and 540 so I am sure you will get it to work ...

We live in the city but rent a garage spot about a block from our house. I was a little concerned about height clearance but between yesterday and this morning we've successfully gotten the car into the home garage and both my and my wife's office garages in back bay. As far as street parking, for the last few months we played a game called "would an X7 fit?" whenever we parked the X5 on the street. I'd say about 2/3 of the time it would have fit without much difficulty.

Thanks everyone. The only picture I have so far is this boring one my wife took when we were picking it up yesterday.
