Ordering a new i4

Hi,

I'm currently ordering a new i4 (company car).
I'm a bit divided with myself.

I like rims, heads-up display and a nice color. I will have to make a choice between them.

Here are the options:
- Color: Alpinweiss (uni) or Skyscraper Grau
- Rims: basic 17" 851 or the 17" 852

If I take Alpinweiss, I can have heads-up display but no 852 rims.
If I take Skyscraper Grau, I have the 852 rims but no heads-up display.

For me, I'm not sure what the more popular option is. The 851 rims or the 852.
I was also wondering if it's better to just drop the heads-up display and have other options instead? But I don't know which ones.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance,
A.

You’ll only see the wheels when you’re going to your car, but you will use the hud all the time, plus wheels are easy to swap!

It’s such a personal thing! I don’t see the 852’s as an upgrade as not a fan of those type of wheels that look designed for EV’s.

A HUD for me is a must have on safety grounds. I’ve had it in every car since 2011 and whenever I drive a car without it, it feels unsafe to be taking my eyes off the road to check the speed.

Go with your gut feel, you will enjoy the car whichever way you go
