Another member for Northern Ireland and me (from Germany) had our orders from January delayed from May to August for this reason. I don't think they will change much. I got the dealership to cancel my custom order and received a Jarama Racetrack Edition, going to pick it up next week. My custom order did not have HUD, wireless charging, etc. anyway, so for me its not a problem. I loved the Jarama Racetrack Edition the moment I saw it and am very happy that I snagged one! There are only 90 produced in Europe! I paid less than a grand more for it so it was a great deal tooFound out today,
Turns out the Race Track version looses, HUD, Wireless Charger, JBL Premium and leather.
This is all the same sort of stuff BMW is suffering with at the moment with options in regards to the chip shortage in production.
I have a feeling this is likely to impact future factory orders possibly too. Current wait time for UK is 3-4 Months. They could even do the same changes to the Pro when bringing out the revised MY22
My dealer did say they are due to bring out a new model code (heard from contacts) However it is unlikely to be anything drastic, maybe some new colours.
This is for the UK though, could be different elsewhere.
Awesome!! I love that Blue paint with the black wheel combo, its an absolutely stunning spec. I would take that in a heartbeat if it had the options of the Pro too.Another member for Northern Ireland and me (from Germany) had our orders from January delayed from May to August for this reason.

Here as well, it's ridiculous.Yeah I’ve seen their listing prices jump up over 1-3k in my area.

add heated steering wheel to the list (friend got a new e-class)Anyone waiting for 2022 models should be aware of the chip shortage which is now impacting several options on new BMW models. Currently, Harmon-Karden stereo upgrades, passenger seat lumbar and width controls, and a couple of other things like foot-activated trunk release are no longer available for order on most low-end models. BMW has stated such options won't return until likely 2022.
There's a chance the 2022 Supras get hit with this, too. We may see temporary deletion of certain options until the chip shortage is resolved. Something to consider in the 2021 vs 2022 decision.
This was super accurate to the TNew here but I've been lurking for awhile.
I've chatted with a family member who owns a Toyota Dealership and I've chatted with the local dealer's sales manager. From what they have been told, '22 models will not see any major changes. Colors sound to be the same. My family members contact mentioned red interior will be an option on the Phantom. August is allocation and arrival to states is estimated to be around October. Some calls have been made to friends of friends who work closely with the TRD team but haven't heard any more. If I hear anymore info, I'll share.
