I have a 2021 40i with a December 2020 build date with every option I wanted that stickered at $97K. I have DHP, HK audio, wireless charging, wifi etc. - all of the things that have since become unavailable or at least have been unavailable for that model at various times this year. The parts shortages have worsened over the course of this year, with features and options dropping off on a rolling basis over time. There was no issue at the beginning of the 2021 model year. |

I can confirm my 2022 M50i order scheduled for a week 46 build will not have the touch screen, per my CA. This will be a deal breaker for me. I don't use the touch screen (hate the fingerprints) but the lack of a touch screen is just not right on a 112K vehicle.

What are you all planning to do ? I can't use CarPlay without touch screen. My CA hasn't reached out to me yet about this issue and my production week is scheduled for week 47

This. I don't give the slightest f what supply chain issues are happening. Just delay the build if you have to, but deliver the WHOLE machine I ordered. I don't care when it shows up. FFS I waited months for my 135 order to show up, I can wait for some touchscreens to be built.

I started a thread about this over in the X5 Forum if anyone needs more information. It's very much true.

Seriously though, are you putting the blame on BMW supply chain mechanisms? There are so many larger things at play here it makes your head spin. Start with holding the DOT, and the FED responsible, for sitting on their fucking hands while this train wreck proceeds forward and work your way down.. |

Yeah, but those were a bunch of low take-rate options that not a lot of people wanted. I think that had more to do with aligning option availability with what was actually selling vs. supply chain issues.

Turns out you are right, the new orders don’t have touch screen. I gave them the feedback that this is rubbish if you are stopping base level expectations. I would not have bought a 100k car if this was not default. It’s weird that you ordered in Aug and were dropped. |

Ordering isn't the same as having an allocation.

This is correct. Those options were removed from 2021 models because so few people selected those options in the USA, not due to a chip shortage. Those options are still available in countries where the demand was still there. I had Rear Entertainment in my old F10 M5 and my kids never used it. They watched their Ipads with cell service. The 2021 model planning was done prior to Covid. Chip shortages appeared after car companies were caught flat footed with surprising demand after everything opened up.
