what option you wish you had ordered?
I am thinking to place an order on my 3.0 gas X6. What should be ordered? I like everything pretty much stock except no hifi logic7 on it. By the way, I am in Taiwan so the option list is different than the states.
A52 Space Grey Hifi/logic 7 red interior any suggestions guys? |

Missing Option
The option I didnt get that i wish i would have is the Premium sound pkg. I only have a single disc cd slot. The premium pkg has a six disc cd changer and ipod adapter. i have since had the i-pod hookup installed but its not the same because it doesnt charge ur ipod as the connection wit the premium pkg does.

I ordered the premium sound package so I could get the integrated Ipod hookup, I love it. Only problem is in the US it comes with a 6 dvd changer in the glove compartment which is not much use to me since I didn't get rear entertainment system. I mean you can burn mp3 discs and play them but you can store so much more on an ipod.
I haven't found anything I don't have that I wish I had ordered. |

I didn't get convenience access, soft close doors, 20" or larger wheels, heads up display, running boards, or ventilated seat and I don't miss them. I wouldn't do without premium package, sport package, premium sound, multi-contour seat or remote trunk lid open.

I got a lot of options. Like comfort seats, comfort access (must have) 20" wheels. Should have gotten premium sound-reg sound is only fair. Really should have gotten active steering. With the reg steering and 20" tires it's a be-otch to turn the front wheels. Like getting a workout every time I park. Wife can't stand it. cheap

I have criticized the camera as not being as good as others I've had. But you will need the camera, the slope of the back throws off the distance judgment. |

One option I have that I would NOT get is the Rear Entertainment System. The flip up screen is always in the way and overall just don't use it.

ipod option

So make sure u order ipod adapter fr. the factory. The headsup display is a must if u get the navigation system, so u can see the navigation directional arrows on the windshield, when u play music loud & can't hear the audio directions. Adaptive drive is necessary if u carry passengers in the back seats, so they don't throw up when u do spirited driving in the twisty mountain roads. |

Mine has active steering, sport package, premium sound, leather dash, soft close doors, automatic tailgate, rearview camera, and comfort access. There's probably a few others that I'm not thinking of. I think it has everything except the rear entertainment system. I didn't order the car, it was already at the dealership so I didn't really have a say in the options. I thought that many of the options were completely unnecessary. The only thing that I think is unnecessary now is the leather dash. I love everything in the car! I especially like the soft close doors for some reason! I can never seem to shut the doors in our Lexus GX now!

I have all the options I wanted.
However, I could do without comfort access, electric hatch, and soft close doors. I did not get HUD or active steering as I had them both before I did not really need either. HUD needs more info displayed to make it worthwhile.
