Will today reveal IE F4 pricing?

[Jonhklee]

I’m still in for Winter 2023 for a base car with a few choice options as long as they keep they £60k base price - I’m in no real hurry at all. This is my forever last ever ICE car, so not bothered too much. Tempted by the FE but not £12k worth of difference, esp i4 and Touring spec.

Maybe it’s market specific. If for whatever reason you can’t sell the V6 in a market (like China) then sell the i4. In a market like the UK where you have a shed load of orders for V6 and both manual and auto product available, why would you market an almost identical product for almost exactly the same price? Keep going until V6 has run out then switch to i4?

Valid point, but this is seriously going top cause a sh1tstorm - imagine if you have been holding off for 9 months after giving your deposit and wanting the AMG to be then told you have to wait for another 18 months

Nice one Lotus - hope you're ready for a mass pull out of deposits.

I was always going for the V6 - but if i wanted the i4 - i'd be on that phone pulling the plug

Another miss on the quality check before sending out information, how many times now?

This doesnt bode well for the cars being sent out without any glitches - if this is the level of Quality checking

I think that was expected to be fair

I've said it before, but... can the admins please add a "facepalm" reaction emoji to the forum? I suspect it would shoot straight to the top of the usage charts

In my understanding the original "start of build" for i4 FEs was targetted as 6 months after the V6 FE start of build. So that would be Oct 2022 or so (Q4 CY22) with late 2022, early 2023 initial deliveries.

Lets not get carried away. You cannot in any way link someone writing copy for a web update with the production floor

Just re reading V6 base Jan 23 and I4 it says cars available from Spring 23. Spec and option pricing 'Summer'. 7 new colours for 23 but exclusive to base model

 

[jimbobc]

On that basis I am waiting I don't want the car arriving in December anyway so will wait for Spring 23 whatever that means

 

[AGP]

So I guess approx £73500 with delivery costs? Not a great saving
Problem is how long will we have to wait for base pricing and to get one maybe earliest Summer 23?

Couldn't see the OTR price. What are we expecting the OTR Breakdowns to be? Delivery Tax etc?
Anyone know?

same as the FE's?
£1045 Delivery and Valet
£55 Registration fee
£1900 ish for first year road tax (v6) - not sure how much cheaper the i4 is with less emissions

Must admit I'd be tempted by this as well.
If V6 base is £64k could add £10k of the options I actually want, with the colour I want and hopefully seat option I want and save a few pounds to boot.
Only thing that puts me off is that if there are price rises coming then this saving could easily be wiped out and all I have done is put car with worse spec back a year....

I've just resigned myself to having to carve out £80K to cover everything (if you include paint protection, insurance, etc as well) ... if there is any left over, it can go towards fuel, or possibly surgery to remove the unsettling permanent grin on my face.
