128 ordering snafu -- HELP!!!
Placed my order Saturday at Hendrick BMW in Charlotte. 128/AW/Taupe Leatherette/High Gloss Black trim. Dealer called back today and said they couldn't enter an order with either high gloss black or aluminum trim on a 128. According to him, the 128 seems to require a manditory upgrade to one of the wood trims. He stated that they understood the configurator was wrong in allowing for the high gloss black or aluminum on a 128 -- that they are no-cost options only for the 135.
Has anyone else ordered a 128 with black or aluminum trim??? |

I agree -- makes no sense. He said their ordering system wouldn't accept black or aluminum for a 128. Only the upgrade wood trims. I need to hear from someone who has ordered a 128 with black or aluminum trim. Or has anyone else run into this issue?

Ah, found it. See this thread and open the *.pdf: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3139
4AT, High Gloss Black trim is standard on the 128i 4A3, Light Burl Walnut is a $500 option, or a No Charge option with ZPP 4AS, Gray Poplar Wood is a $500 option, or standard with ZPP 4MG, Glacier Silver Aluminum is only available when the car is equipped with ZPP (No Charge) So you order a 128i w/o ZPP and you can get the standard Gloss Black trim or pay more for either Burl Walnut or Gray Poplar and forget about getting the Aluminum. Or you can order the 128i with ZPP and choose any trim you want at no extra cost. That ought to be fun, taking the wholesale pricing sheet to Hendrix and instructing the CA on how to place the order (and deducting some $$ off list for training the CA ; -). |

Will do. Maybe that's the problem. He may be trying to enter high gloss black 4AT as an option, but the system won't accept because it's standard. Looks like glacier aluminum may only be available with the premium pkg, which I didn't order. Thanks everyone.
