I just got my car before Christmas and the option covers the entire top, but also all of the column from underneath. It really completes the look inside the car with full leather. To be fair, maybe its not as noticeable on a black car, given the leather and the column are the same colour (my car is graphite blue). I know of someone locally who has the black/bordeaux interior and his biggest regret with the interior was not checking the leather steering column box.

Leather Steering Column…that’s easy, yes get it.

You can’t help but notice it all the time.

Much better than the plastic shroud.

Is anyone tracking the SFL Composer and can tell me where it is?

Great spec! You'll love the seats... once you're in them. :-)

I feel like I got a bit lucky here with my timeline, walked into the dealership on October 16th, took a cancelled order just before the freeze date and now it's produced! Can't wait for it to show up, although hopefully it is not below freezing with salt on the roads for the first drive.

You'll have to bring it over to the Island Circuit so we can ogle it! Congrats.

Question: My build recently went into v210 status (I see it on the build sheet). I submitted my build with LWBS.

Up until today, TYD showed the build with LWBS when I clicked "More details about this vehicle". However, it now shows both the LWBS and Sports Seats Plus (2 way). My SA has cited that since its v210 on the build sheet, it's fine. Has anyone come across a similar issue or seen a case where TYD turned out be different, but correct when compared to the build sheet? Given the unknown availability of LWBS, I just want to confirm there will be no surprises here. Thanks!

I've already got 2 Area 27 days booked! Decent chance I'll make it over to VIMC, although I'm trying to prioritize road-trips over track as I am not a massive track rat and really overdid it over the covid period in my previous e90 m3.

FWIW my build that's just a bit behind you shows 2-way and the 18-way that I ordered. I'm guessing the 2-way is an artifact of the GTS Interior Package.

Good luck to everyone who has allocations inbound and thanks to those who have advised me along this 25 month process.
