TYD says car is en route to my dealer (if that is trustworthy). If so, should arrive today. Right when I’m getting on a plane for a business trip until Friday. lol
[…] I asked about settling in advance since I will likely be on business travel when it arrives, and this means they can go ahead and install the rear toe links / shims and have it waiting for me. I know I could be conceding pre-delivery nit fixing leverage, but I doubt they’ll deny me anything reasonable. […]
I’m planning on doing the same thing… when it’s on the truck to the dealer and they’ve been invoiced I’ll settle everything up. I want delivery day to be easy peasey… just walk in and make it all about the car and no waiting around playing the normal dealership games.
Did anybody else in 'Start Production' get bumped wayyy out?
According to TYD, I hit 'Start Production' on 4/19 and was supposed to be moved to CP8.0 last Friday. Instead, it moved CP8.0 3 weeks out until 5/20!
Does this mean that my car's just hanging out, partially built, at the factory waiting on some parts to show up?
My dealer didn't seem to have any different info than TYD is showing.
Logistically, I just wonder how a single vehicle hangs out at the factory for a month to get finished. Hopefully she's in a nice waiting room with good German bier.

I'm on the same delay cycle. Went into production on 4/20 and was supposed to be out last Friday. Now I'm scheduled for CP8.0 on 5/20.

I am happy to go over there and stand next to it with a billy club until you get back - just let me know.

If you mean from when the boat moored in Houston to delivery...it moored late April 27th, so that makes (counting fingers and toes) ...6 days, but that includes a weekend. Not bad at all.
Incidentally, TYD actually (correctly) indicated the car was en route to the dealership (in Plano) this morning.

For me V250 was also 4/19, V260 on 4/29 and in today's morning update there is no delay and the date of V300 (CP8) on 5/6 remains unchanged
Anyone recognizes a 6-7k Base price Increase on GT4 for the Canadian market???
Definitely an ugly bump, but I suspect most car manufacturers will pass a significant bump in MSRP between 22-23. We are finally feeling the full impact of combined supply chain strain, and extraordinary demand.
I was given an allocation last month for a GT4, and it is a MY23 so the new MSRP it is. Combine that with federal luxury tax and this car will roughly cost $20k more than a 2022. Pay to play I suppose.
