Question Open pore dark ash wood

Does anyone know if this trim item still "on constraint"? and or when it might become available?

They dealership should be able to tell you. When I was inquiring about it they went on their ordering system and it was on constraint just a while back with no ETA for availability.


I did read a post around here (it was on the internet so it must be true ) that it might be on constraint for a while (feb or something if I remember correctly)

Still is I'm afraid. Every option seems to be unavailable with this car.

I'd go inventory shopping if you're looking for Open Pore wood. I know when I was looking I found a number with it sitting on lots in the GTA. I wanted the open pore but then found my car with a HUD (which I wanted) with the carbon fibre so I compromised.

I've reached out to my dealership and they are supposed to check and get back tomorrow.

I'd rather not compromise if possible but if my build is available on a lot that would be fine. Guess we'll cross that bridge on Feb. 1.

I have a clause on my sales contract whereby if my car does not arrive as ordered the dealership agrees to furnish a "comparable vehicle" until it does.

Still unavailable on mine, dealer is checking once a week up until my lock-in date mid to late December ( for a scheduled build first 10 days of February ). If it is not available come my lock-in date I am going to have to go for either the stock black lacquer or the carbon fibre; I am not willing to wait for an unspecified amount of time, want the car for spring/summer as I live in a climate where it rains from November till April

I hope it will be available for my build (C43, 1-10 dec)... I would hate to have that brown shiny wood on my car, or the piano black (don't even know if it's available for the C43) .

My C43 coupe has the Black Ash wood. I ordered it in June and it arrived at the dealership the second week of November.

Only other acceptable choice would be Carbon Fibre... but it's a VERY distant #2!!

I wanted the open pore as well but mine was on the lot with Carbon Fiber which is very cool actually.


Now if only they'd deliver my car......

I just bought one with open pore last week. They are out there - you just need to hunt for them.
