One thing that I must say that having had now 4 generations of ///M's one can truly see the evolution of BMW's and their philosophy of design and what they are bringing to the market. Some things are positive, something are negative and some things have remained the same.

Anyways, since taking delivery last week Wednesday (28th July 2021) - the whole ordering system and how we can spec cars has very much become a frustrating thing. I wanted to order a full spec M4 X-Drive with all the bells and whistles to only be told that many things would be unavailable for up to a year. Meaning I would have to wait for around mid June/July 2022 to get my exact spec. With that being said, if I wanted to order now, I would not be able to get certain options:

- Harmon Kardon
- Laser lights
- Carbon Ceramic Brakes
- Carbon Seats
- Wireless Charging
Wait, since when is Harmon Kardon, laser lights, CCBs, and carbon buckets not available?

We've all known wireless charging has been removed but the others have been either standard (HK) or available options that have been added to orders so far.

🤔
