Our dealership has an allocation coming up in a few weeks and the wife has decided to get her first BMW. She loved the X2 but the color she wanted was only available on the X1.

Here’s to the wait.

Blue Bay Lagoon Metallic
M Sport Package
871M 19” Wheels
Black Perforated Veganza Seats
Aluminum Hexacube II Trim
Convenience Package
Active Driver Seat
Harman Kardon Sound System
Remote Engine Start

With everyone here complaining about ride comfort are you sure she wants the m-sport package? We find no real issue with it but..

"The wife is ALWAYS right" (that's the number one rule for any successful marriage... my parents were married for 50 years... my aunt and her husband also just celebrated their 50th anniversary... my dad and my aunt's husband both told me to abide by the golden rule religiously)

Happy wife, happy life!

come to think of it, why not just special order the X2 in Blue Bay Lagoon color?

I only said that because he was on another tread saying she wanted xline because of the seats. So I'm warning him about the tough crowd on the m-sport suspension. Ill keep quite.

Unfortunately you will be bearing the brunt of her complaints when she realizes (to herself of course) that she made a mistake.

any sensible boyfriend/husband would have used a phone to record her saying that she chose the car herself. this avoids unnecessary arguments down the road. let's call it the automotive prenuptial agreement.

Is she paying for the X1?

I told her she should test drive one with the sport seats to be sure. At first she didn’t want them, but after she changed her mind - as they often do. 😂
