That's what I thought... but these dates are after factory completion... Which makes me believe that it's roof related... and was delayed a couple times.

Baltic Highway also arrived into port too! So it's a possibility.

My Spyder is in CMPPRD Status (completed production) as of April 9th. VIN has also been assigned. Now I wait for Invoicing and a Boat for the long trip home

Looks good. Checkpoint 8 in a few days, then invoiced, onto the exclusive department, then onto a ship I would imagine a bit more than two weeks from now.
Have not heard anything more about mine since checkpoint 8 on March 30th. If I miss the next ship assuming there is one every week, and you catch the following one, they should travel together. I am not sure how the cars are transported to the west coast. Mine will come into Brunswick Ga, or Jacksonville.

Hey Rob,
Doesn't our cars go to the Exclusive department before Checkpoint 8 / Invoicing? I always thought that Invoicing was right before shipment. I could be wrong though. At any rate I predict that I have about more 6 weeks from now. Mine has to make the trip through the Panama Canal up to Port at San Diego.

On a side note... For all those that had their Spyders on Port hold or at the Dealer awaiting the roof recall... has anyone taken delivery of their Spyder yet? Last I heard was that parts were estimated to hit this week. I haven't seen any updated post or pictures so I'm assuming no one has gotten their fix yet???

My Spyder has been sitting at the port since March 15. On April 8, status finally changed from ARRPDI (arrive pre-delivery inspection) to PDIFIN (pre-delivery inspection finished), which suggests that perhaps the roof has been fixed! But I understand that the car has to go to PDIMON status before the car can be released for pick-up, and I am still waiting. Frustrating.

It'll be worth the wait!
My wait has been forever and I secured one with a deposit from day one! (November 5th).

I am just copying this link from another page which illustrates the build process for several
examples to give a good idea where a car is based on the factory processing code and when you can expect delivery, etc.

So I assume by the silence on this post that no one has gotten their Spyder yet??? Have the roof parts not been shipped?

That's good news... As of Yesterday morning, mine wasn't loaded... Not sure how much delay there is... I won't know any details until Thursday when my sales guy gets back into the office. I'm hoping mine was loaded too

Just a guess that it should go on this weeks ship, possibly
tomorrow since it appears they are trying to crank out the delayed cars to catch up. Mine was only 1 week from checkpoint 8 till loading (normally3 weeks). Yours should either be loaded tomorrow or on the 21st, if indeed they ship weekly.
Let me know!
Rob
