Yes. Original schedule was 8/5 build and October delivery but my slot was swapped with a local 918 owner who ordered WP and a bunch of CXX. I assume that is the CXX/WP delay that is affecting everyone. I was lucky enough to be next in line with a low option build. I was told the new build start would be 7/6 and Sept 7 delivery, but got the call today that it was moved forward another week! I am pinching myself!
Great news. I am still 7/20 build.

Just heard back from the dealer. There are supply issues with the CF steering wheels so rather than delay all WP cars, PAG decided to fit a standard wheel. They will replace it with a CF wheel when they become available.

Thanks, congrats again.

That being said, I use enclosed whenever I ship mine.

Chris, the car looks great congrats!
As for the whinging about the open car transporter, I supposed I shouldn't be surprised given the climate around here of late but really? "Appalling?" And EEK! Parked underneath such pedestrian SUVs? Do you think the cars roll off the line and are hermetically sealed until they arrive in your dealer's showroom? This was a car that was delivered in Europe where most get transported in open carriers.
I hope those complaining about that don't do ED. My car was driven hard and tracked for >3,000 miles, sat outside at the Munich airport for a week before being picked up, transported on an uncovered flatbed truck to Emden, sat again outside at the port for two weeks, then sat on a boat for more weeks, at the port in Houston outside for a week, then got thrown on another truck before arriving at my dealer. The entire time it never saw a micron of soap or water that didn't fall from the sky or got kicked up on a track during my glorious trip. It arrived looking like absolute ****. Got it home, quick bath and looked like it just rolled off the line when I picked it up in the delivery room almost two months before.
