Here is my ETA sheet showing dates - you can get this from your dealer.

Enjoy the wait! It won't be long and will be worth it!

Just got word that the updated dealer ETA is now April 15

Originally it was May 13, then April 29. It arrived Emden yesterday - 2 days ahead of the most recent ETA.

So far mine
entered body shop 3/3
exited production 3/17
arrived Emden 3/23
left Emden 3/24 (I think it may have actually arrived Emden sooner)
Arrived port 4/6 (took a few days longer than forecast presumably due to high seas)
AND NOW I WAIT (again) for news that it arrives at dealer. ETA hasn't changed from 4/15 but Davisville ETA was 4/8 so it's two days ahead of schedule at the moment.

I like control. I've had ZERO in this process (other than spec'ing the car).
Not complaining but it's been interesting going through such a long process starting in Feb 2015 and having so little control over anything. Not really used to this situation.

Probably picking up the car 4/26 or 27 (still TBD - they haven't finished my to-do list yet)

My Car exited Production on March 23rd. It is currently on a Vessel and is scheduled to arrive in port on April 26th. SA said it can take roughly 5-10 days of PDI and another 2-5 days of Truck Transportation... then another day or two for Dealer PDI.

Congrats, Carol. Have you got a chance to check your car at dealer I bet it looks great in Agate Gray! Mine is still traveling through English channel, can't be more excited!

Nice! Shockwave, mine finished on 3/31, my SA said it will arrive San Diego around 5/2, very close to yours. But will take a bit to get to Utah, sometime around labor day. Cheers!

Congrats to you, and I'm sure it'll be exciting when it finally is in your garage! I've visited mine twice so far. First time just to check it out. Second time it had paint correction, Xpel completed, Opticoat completed, cage almost completed, harnesses had initial install (and we worked a bit on fitment and more adjustment is needed). Now the suspension work must be done, windshield protection applied and window tint.

The installer put on the windshield protection (I believe it's Clearplex) but there was a problem with the adhesive so it was removed and will be redone.

I'm hoping for pick up this week - maybe Tue/Wed? Just don't know and I'm fine with waiting.
