After much thought, I just placed my order! I ended up ordering a 2018 MX 75D, 5-seater in pearl white with enhanced autopilot.
Thought a lot about my order. Some notes on my decisions below:
22” black Onyx Wheels. We really wanted this option (it looks amazing on white!) but ultimately the 10-15% mileage reduction just did not seem worth it. We will most likely just get the 20’s powder coated black.
PUP. The only thing we really wanted out of this was XM radio. In the end, I am not going to pay 6k for sat radio so we passed. We live in SoCal so the winter features are useless to us. The default radio sounded great to me as well. HEPA filter is neat but not 6k neat. Lastly, the self presenting doors. These are no doubt cool but you still get most of the power door features without it.
Premium seats. We looked at both and honestly liked the multipattern better. Coming from years of BMW, the Tesla leather leaves a lot to be desired and just did not seem worth it when the multipattern looks so great. The two tone look of the bolsters and headrest with the textured cloth looked more sporty to us. We will have 3 boys to carry around and I think it’s going to hold up really well.
The car should be here in early March. We did a loan at the 2.5% promotional rate. Should just sneak in before the federal rebate gets reduced!
Also of note, this is my first post to the forum and I’m looking forward being an active member!
