Parts shortage: are you waiting or did you order/purchase?

injin09 · 08-09-2021, 01:22 PM

I was ready to place an order for a 330e, but three of the features want are not available (in addition to passenger lumbar/bolster adjust deletes) - H.Kardon, Driver Assist Pro, Park Assist. Two of them are 'must have' options for me and as a result I'm on the sidelines for the time being.

Did you proceed with your purchase or defer in light of some of the options not being available?

Had to wait on my M2 and the M340 but they were both well worth it......

I hope this resolves before the 2023 model comes out as the new dash design in the LCI is not good.

I was sorta okay with the dash, but decided the lack of hard preset buttons; and a proper gear selector were the deal breakers I needed to go for a 2022 MY. I'm also afraid the RWD M340i might be discontinued for the US.
