Unfortunately that seems unlikely. And going with the base model means losing the extra 2 speakers, better seats, and adaptive headlights in addition to the better wheels/tires.

They haven't given optional HU yet so I doubt they will start now. It is a regional thing so you will get what you get and like it!
Those are horrid and look like a 1998 big screen tv crammed in the dash.

I love the looks. It's just the ride height ruining things. Properly lowered this thing will look very nice

If it was available right now and it had been out for 6 months, I would be at my dealer placing an order for one. Now I'll have to wait until next spring to take delivery since no way I'm getting this car in the fall for the winter in the NE US.

It's interesting that on all other photos the calipers are not painted.

Do you know there’s another winter after that right? And then another one. And then another one.
