The online Build Your Own does not include Autobahn but the ordering guide does. Another omission is Massage front seats as a separate option. They are listed as part of the Executive package but not alone. The online system is not and has never been as complete as the ordering guide. Dealers use the ordering guide. Use the pdf that was posted here rather than the "build your own" to construct your build.

Thanks.Yes,I have the Pricing Guide dated effective May 6,2022.What's curious is that the Autobahn Package was previously in the online configurator.Guess we'll just wait for the order confirmation which looks like it will be a while.

The i7 has the two features in the Executive Package according to the order guide. I wonder if BMW decided that should be the case for the gas-powered 7 series as well.

I contacted BMW Customer Relations about the Autobahn Package not showing on the configurator.She has "forwarded this information to the appropriate parties to research and address the issue."We'll see.Will cancel order reservation if not available.

Confirmed with BMW Customer Relations today that the" Autobahn Package has been impacted by global capacity restrictions and cannot be ordered at this time."I will wait until my order is confirmed and see if the package is included. If it is not, I will postpone the order.

Per the updated ordering guide and my CA the Autobahn Package has indeed ended production. I will most likely cancel my order. Will place another when and if it ever comes back.

Can you post (or message) the updated ordering guide?

Thanks. Interesting that they still list Autobahn but the intro note says it "ends production" August 22, so it is kaput. But is that a forever thing?

My CA wasn't sure about that. But as of now it is gone. Sad.

The only plus is that Integral Active Steering, which was part of the Autobahn package for G12's, is now standard on G70 760. IAS IMHO is essential for the 7 -- it makes the 7 as maneuverable as a 5.
