US G30 4 zone climate control
Has anyone successfully ordered 4NB on a US Spec G30? I'm being told that it is not possible to order on the G30 in the US. Between this and not being able to get the Alcantera headliner any longer, I am considering canceling my M550 order.

Re the alcantara believe this is a worldwide shortage, the Italian company making it has to turn away orders as it simply doesn't have the capacity. Read somewhere that Tesla had also dropped the option for its use in its cars of late.
Shame as it is very nice and personally think is a big step up from the standard material. |

IMHO, these two options in no way make the car less of a must have. If alcantra is in short supply, what car do you get after cancelling the M550?

Or just get M5 if you want both?

It’s mostly an OCD thing. I know it’s available ROW but not here. Sort of like having blank buttons. It drives me crazy. If the residuals improve for March I’ll be jumping to the M5.
