Welcome, I'm a recent owner of a '22 and have to say, this is an amazing forum, members are really welcoming and helpful. There is a real passion for the car and enthusiasm that brings you back time and time again.

Welcome! Now drop some deets on us. What color? Options? Any mods planned? What you coming from? First BMW? First M? You know, those kinds of details. 😁

MBB, full merino aragon brown, every option except M Package and Ceramic Brake, black M wheels.

No mods planned at this time, but that may change quickly as I learn more about what is and isn't modable, lol.

Yes, first BMW, first M. Current ride is a 2012 F150 FX4 :shrug:

MBB is the best. My dealer offered me a much better deal on a BHG car in stock but I am beyond thrilled I waited. Infinitely more fun vs the snooze fest the dealer tried to rope me into.

Out of curiosity, with your car being built when it is, do you know what parts they are scrapping with the chip shortage? Last I checked it was just BW and the wireless charger that nobody with a phone case could use anyway

I heard that the BW was scrapped which sucks because it's one of the favorite bits of my M5C LCI. But they even scrapped the phone charger? That's crazy. I use that every time I enter the vehicle.

Unfortunately, I do not have an answer for you. I can say that the B&W stereo was not an option when I built/ordered mine. While I wish I had those cool lighted speakers, it doesn't bother me otherwise as I suspect I'll end up doing a nice custom stereo with Focal speakers and JL subs/amps.

Nothing was mentioned about the wireless charger, but that doesn't bother me as I would rather plug my phone in and use Car Play anyway. Also, I think my case is too big to fit on the wireless charger, so there's that.

Just for info, the lack of wireless charger also takes away enhanced Bluetooth so you lose things like connecting 2 phones and text messages through idrive etc.

Oof. That definitely sucks. Well, I'm still being told approximately next April for mine to be delivered, so maybe I'll get lucky and between now and when my build starts at the factory both the B&W and wireless charger/enhanced Bluetooth will be available again.

Thanks for the heads up.

Really? Your phone doesn’t get ridiculously hot while using the charger?

No truly never had an issue. I have the iPhone pro max and it fits (certainly without much extra room), charges and doesn't overheat. The charging does seem relatively slow though for what that's worth.
