Exclamation *WARNING* Full Leather X3DA Shkhir Orange

If your thinking about ordering a Shkhir Orange full leather X3DA option on 2014 my's be aware that your headliner will be in orangeeven though the description clearly says "X3DA Sakhir Orange Full Merino Leather w/Anthracite (blackish) Alcantara Headliner"

If you read below it on the ordering guide it contradicts itself by saying

"X3DA requires ordering XD5" xd5 is a orange headliner
" X3DA will delete 776 from the order" Anthracite (blackish) Alcantara Headliner.

I found this out by switching to the full leather option and BWM Germany responding that i must get the orange headliner and that it will be a 9 week delay in production.

We responded with can we get X3DA but with the Anthracite (blackish) Alcantara Headliner as it states. They replied NO.

So i have to cancel the full leather option. I do not want and orange headliner... ewe

Was anyone else able to order X3DA with Anthracite (blackish) Alcantara Headliner????????

i really got onboard with the full leather and now i cant get it (well i sure the 10g full idv pkg could make it happen but i am not willing to spend that)


NOTE: I believe this affect ALL full leather cars in 2014. So if you have ordered full leather your headliner will be the same color as your seats. According to what i have been able to put together. (look at the guide XD5 notation) XD5 = headliner in upholstery color

Weird! I have Sahkir X3DA on my '13 and it has the Anthracite headliner.

Definitely would not want a full Sahkir headliner. Too much red.

Yah I am not happy about it. I am hoping someone will chime in and say that it can be done and someone is misunderstanding the codes!

Just called BMW NA and they lady was very nice and agreed that the catalog contradicts its self but said that she cant do anything about it and i should call the Euro deliver phone number and see what option is correct.

Looks like all full leather cars for 2014 come with the headliner in the leather color.

i cant believe this is accurate. Probably a computer error and the bmw rep is giving your dealer false info. BMW doesn't make Sakhir alcantara. it doesnt exist.

Color matched alcantara is only available in champagne, platinum, amaro brown, silk gray, caramel and anthracite.

it has never been available for non-individual m leathers like sakhir.

I think you are correct and I am not going to give up but I also don't know if I want my delivery date pushed back in to the winter season.

So the reps email said that all full leather new for 2014 is the same color as uplostry. If you look at the ordering guide from2013 and compare with 2014 you can see that there is a difference. The rep also said that adding full leather is now considered and "individual " to get the orange headliner and that's why there is a nine week delay.

Anyone else order 2014 full with leather inquire about their headliner color ?

Anyone have a contact that could help find out whats correct?

I wonder when the 2014 configurator will be up on bmwusa.com? This would probably be a good indication as to if this is correct. If you change to the full leather on the configurator and the headliner changes color, then I would think that would be pretty accurate. I am on the fence with full leather and I'm going with SO. A SO headliner would kill it for me...

Spoke to a lady to day at BMW NA. She said in the 2014 Brochure it shows a black headliner. She was going to get some more info and call me back in a few days.

UPDATE: BMW Special Delivery called me today and left a voice mail."I have confirmed that you MUST have option 776 on your order sheet along with the X3DA inorder to get the anthracite headliner but you can still order it. Sorry for the confusion "

Thats great news. SO for all the other full leather colors if you want a gray/black headliner then make sure 776 is on your order sheet.

Is this really the case? I placed an order for a 2014 with X3DA. The vehicle inquiry/design printout reads "X3DA Sakhir Orange Full Merino Leather w/Anthracite Alcantara Headliner $3,500.00." XD5 is nowhere to be found... Then again, neither is 776. Something is not right. The pricing guide clearly shows for full silverstone II, sakhir orange, and black that 776 will be deleted and XD5 is required. That would mean full silverstone II orders would get a silverstone headliner and full black orders would get black instead of anthracite. That can't be, can it?

On the 2013 pricing guide, XD5 required Individual Platinum, Champagne, or Silk Gray... not available for non-Individual colors. No such options are listed on the 2014 pricing guide for Individual colors. That's why I have to wonder if this isn't a mistake.

If this is the case, though, I need to do something fast. I went bold and ordered sakhir on sakhir. An orange headliner would be far too bold for me to handle!

Yes that is correct you will get the color of your leather unless you add 776 to your order. That is new for 14's.

Hey. After long talks with 3 people at BMW NA they have fixed this now. You will get get 776 unless you add the option for headliner in leather color. They also changed the online configuration to reflect the above.

It was a wording problem with the catalog.
