Supply chain/ manufacturing delays could easily push us into receipt in November anyway.. all good. Happy to have a confirmed car coming either way!
With the weather that you have had this spring you guys should be getting a pass deep into the fall!

So, Spyder to a GT4, obviously close but different as well, why the change?

Amen to that. Worst spring in memory!

Simple answer really. I love both.. but wifey likes a hardtop more, and I don't need that much sun.
Did consider keeping both, but really I can only drive one at a time, so Spyder will go back to the dealer.

After a couple of days of drifting and maneuvering, the SFL Composer is docked in Baltimore.

According to TYD, the ship is supposed to be in Houston on the 20th, so it must be spending several days in Baltimore. We are getting closer!

My car is also on the Composer headed for Jacksonville; My TYD shows it entering port of Jacksonville on the 20th. Interesting. Do you think it will hit Jacksonville on the way to Houston or vice versa... hmmmm

Surely it would stop in Jacksonville first, then hook around Florida and head for Houston!

Just found that TYD advanced my date of delivery to dealer from June 17 to June 4. That'd only be great news if I hadn't squeezed in a Cinque Terre/Lake Garda trip into that slot to take my mind off the car after my date slipped by three weeks!

Now I need to do what I can to prevent the dealer from making it the showroom display piece in my absence. Too many pants pocket rivets, dangling keys, kiddies running around the showroom for my comfort.

Never easy. lol But I will see the car a week earlier than I expected so that's a good thing. I better start selling some stuff.

My car is on the Siem Cicero and is also supposed to be in Houston on the 20th. It is currently moored in Davisville. Siem's schedule shows it 2 days behind where it actually is and shows it supposedly in Houston on the 13th...

Just tell your dealer to put it aside away from the showroom or place a partition around it. Our dealer did it for us.

Well you’ve come to the right place for retraining. 🤣

I mean if I’m reading that right… you have 70 days to stress about whether or not your build is perfect. The impatient part hasn’t even begun. 😬

Now that Adrift has moved on to driving his car, who in this forum has been here the longest?
My TYD intro screen still shows Phase 1/4 "Order Created" of last November.
Fortunately, I did hit 'Start Production' three weeks ago on April 19th, but my estimated 'Complete Production' has been bumped out to May 20th.
In the original plans, my car should be on a boat.
