At time of writing you can still order a car on Toyota.co.uk, in a choice of colours. They have not sold out.
Speaking from experience you may be able to request one but that does not mean you will get a car.The site is still accepting orders and deposits. The suggestion is that they've worked through their existing waiting list and that there are cars available.

Thoughts on all-season or winter tyres for the 86?
I live in North Yorkshire but hardly out in the sticks and I do have the luxury of being able to WFH if conditions are that bad.
My last RWD car was an NC MX-5 which I ran on summer tyres in all sorts of conditions without any major drama.

I've done the last 4 winters in Newcastle with PS4s on my BRZ. No dramas. Won't be swapping tyres this year on the GR86.I live in North Yorkshire but hardly out in the sticks and I do have the luxury of being able to WFH if conditions are that bad.

I emailed Toyota and got a very quick reply. Unfortunately it was complete nonsense and didn't actually answer my questions. I've gone back to them and asked them to confirm when they intend to fit the missing alarm.
While I don't think the car is particularly attractive to car thieves if someone tries to break in to it while it's on my drive I'd like to hear it!
ETA: got a further reply.

At present we are unable to advise anything further regarding the alarm as Toyota GB are currently investigating the alarm on UK specification GR86.
As soon as we have an update to rectify this we will update you, I must assure you this is of upmost priority at Toyota GB.
Not acceptable. Particularly given their unwillingness to give a timescale for resolution. As soon as we have an update to rectify this we will update you, I must assure you this is of upmost priority at Toyota GB.

Looking at GR86 on Autotrader, obviously a few speculative adverts, but am I right in thinking the premiums are gone on these and low mileage examples are now available at list price, if not slightly lower?
Yes.Keep in mind the first batch had a lower list.
I'm amazed this one has been on there all week given the colour and price:
