just for fun I built a BMW X1
2014 BMW X1 xDrive 35i $39,990
that seems pretty reasonable looking at the starting price, but things get crazy pretty quickly.
paint +$895
a selection of Terra Nevada Leather forces me into the "x-line" package increasing the price.
I'm now at $3345 in "options"
A sunroof is $1600 (this should really be standard on a BMW)
If you want a simple Navigation, you're forced into a $2,200 tech package.
(none of these I've selected)
here's more "options" that surprised me
electric seat $950
Storage Compartment Package $350 (WTF is this?
)
So that base price with a forced package for a specific exterior and interior colour now costs:
$46,245 (all fees except taxes)
WOW!
