My $0.02, there is nothing in the '24 that isn't in the '23.5. If waiting saves you money, wait, if it doesn't, don't.
I personally hate the limited colors of the X and V8, I don't like black/brown/silver cars. so I got an SE so I could get Pangea Green/White Roof.
Unfortunately, that seems to mean features that you used to be able to add you can't, but I'd rather have a green / white roof car than clearsite. I got lucky, I ordered in June 22 and it was here in Oct 22. My dealer was the Landrover Raleigh location, they were great to work with. We still haven't gotten our second key, i bought USB A ports for all the missing ports but apparently might get C's installed via recall. I got the digital dash, it was fun for a bit but I prefer carplay so the dash doesn't do a whole lot if you're not using Pivi Pro.

Thx a lot for your input. That’s a really nice color combo u have! Actually, I just had the build sheet sent over to me on the 23.5 that is arriving shortly and to my surprise it does have the digital dash. What it is missing, seems to be a heating steering wheel which down here in south Florida is not really needed. Also, apparently manual steering column adjustment instead of electric. None of those being deal breakers for me.
I am just thinking also, I do a lot of driving so getting a late 23 might actually help me with the mileage down the road. When it’s time to sell….
