Mike, Factory delivery is now an up-charge on the UK & Euro configurator (roundly 700 Euro). Infact I thought that was the case with every Euro delivery these days but USA clients may have special privilege.

Oh, we're special all right. Our configurator still shows $0 (it used to be $2250). OTOH, 2 weeks insurance and other extras were included before so it may not be all that much of a comparative bargain.

Alot! but a GT3 is still 330k AUD or about 315k USD here which is crazy.
I would live in the USA tomorrow if i could move my business there, i have visited the US 24 times and its not enough, great country

No you're too successful to immigrate, and you'd likely try to do it legally, that's not how it's done!
Typically comparing currencies directly doesn't make a lot of sense if you're not receiving your revenue also in that medium. In most countries where it seems the US cars are cheap their pay scale and other costs of living are much higher as well.

Latest word is that my car, which went into production on 11/14, is still in V260 status. It has a build sheet but that's as far as it's gone. I guess there are others in the same boat, although as reported in other threads there are cars that went into production on the same day as mine but now have VIN's. Oh, well. Nothing I can do but wait....

A fellow Rennlister whose car went into production the same day as mine, and was completed, ordered the same color as I did so I don't think that's it. A guess is that since we've been hearing that more GT3's are being produced relative to other models to catch up on production, maybe some items from suppliers have run short, say PCCB's or front lift components. But I don't really know.

Mike. Very interesting news. I too am in the same boat. Very frustrating as I have made travel plans that cannot be changed. My car has been in production for 2 weeks now and although I have a VIN the car is still showing V260 delayed and the dealer cannot tell me when it will be "completed". I was told it was going to be completed week 47 but apparently its been sowing the same status for 2 weeks. The dealer also mentioned perhaps it was component supply but makes no dense as I know cars produced three weeks ago are now with customer (even RHD ones as the first was delivered yesterday to a UK customer). Mines white with no lift or PCCB so its nether of those. All I know is that it wasn't completed today (end of week 47) then it wont be available for me to pick up on 6th Dec as it needs 10 days from production. Its a bit frustrating really...

I was informed yesterday my build date has been pushed back at least one week. My new build date is Jan. 18th but I am not holding my breath.

Your situation is much different as you are locked into a time frame with your trip. For your sake, mate, I really hope this resolves for you soon.
