Btw does anyone know how long one has to modify an order ? Say with different wheels ?
Also NorCal here, my dealer also told me “around the 15th” of this month so hopefully an allocation for me shortly. However, open communication is not the forte of these guys, I’ll likely have to prod them again to get any sort of update.

Just got my build sheet for my 2023 order for a 110S (was 2021). Reviewing everything in it and so far changes I'm seeing are below for the model years.

- interior seating is Taurus Leather versus Taurus Leather/Robust Woven Textile (so all leather?)
- no digital dash (which I knew about)
- standard interior gone (don't know what this is)
- no click and go now (which is fine)
- OHC Mirror position gone
- attenuating solar front windshield gone

Probably some other things I missed but if anyone knows what standard interior, OHC mirror or solar front shield are that would be helpful. Also if indeed the full leather is now included that would be a big win.

Thanks!

Mine was a little less than 2 months before the build date.
Tried making changes but my built was already locked. A new order would take another 6-8 months so I'll stick with what I ordered...

My dealer let me know that they could place my order today for my 110 S. My build had originally included the ClearSight Mirror (which I had on my D90 and really liked) so I hope that stays.

I was just informed by my dealer that they received information on their February allotment however LR is only allowing then to be filled by 110 orders and that they are not allocating any D90 orders this quarter. My patience is officially exhausted...so I'm out.

Default 2023 110 ordered

Placed my $5K deposit in November’21, dealer had their open call yesterday and i got my order locked in. This dealer had 10 slots, all taken I’m afraid. Asked about edits to the spec and was given 1 week. My only surprises - I couldn’t order the 110 hood decal because I’m getting the factory satin wrap and the decal is dealer installed, also no electronic steering adjustment/memory. Delivery ETA 18 June.

Default Ordered in July

I ordered a D90S back in July, yesterday I got word from my dealer , and an email showing that it would be built feb 18th and delivered April 15. It will be a 23. Gone are the clear sight mirror, larger screen and digital gages. Everything else seems ok. Was wondering if there is still a possibility of getting any of those items still? Also, why so long for delivery after the build?

I just met with my dealer sales guide this morning. He said their January allotments (6) were all for 6 cylinder P400 models which I did not want. After some thought and discussion with my better half I changed my order from a D90 to a 110S, still P300, Tasmin Blue with a white roof and steelies. I am first in line for the February allotment. We shall see.

When we went through my MY23 order the larger screen was standard, not sure you can choose the smaller one any more. We didn't discuss the clearsight mirror but I had decided against that anyway - initially I thought it was a great idea, but when I test drove the car I just couldn't focus precisely on the display. I think when you get to a "certain age" short distance sight is just not as good as it used to be and with CS you are focusing on a relatively close screen, versus through a mirror. If you wear readers, try it (without your readers) before you select this option. I've also heard that shipping delays are extended with some of these chip based options like CS.
