Default RE: WHO HAS A 2009 ON ORDER?

Hey SKiDs, glad to see they finally got back to you and you’re happy with the response. I'm still fuming about mine.... "should be 4 to 5 weeks from ship date of 8/29/08".... really, because it's not set to be built until 9/30... that’s some magic if my car can show up before it's been built.


ORIGINAL: SKiDs33t

I hear ya Cuda. My frustration level peaked a few hours ago, and I could hardly concentrate on work.

I finally got a response a little while ago. I guess I missed them before they left for the weekend. They gave me a new ship date of 9/25/08. My original DELIVERY date was 9/16/08. All in all, not too bad of a delay I guess. It should be in the port by mid to late November, and be in Germany in December. I wont be back from Afghanistan until January-ish so It sort-of works out I guess. I was hoping to be the one that picks it up from the prep-center, but I guess Ill have to get a Power of Attorney so my friend can do it for me. My dealer said he will store it in a locked area covered if I want, so Ill take him up on the offer. I think he is planning a big media unveiling of the car since it will be the first in my area.

Its good to know SOMETHING, even if it isnt exactly what I wanted to hear. My blood pressure is finally dropping a bit, and I can lay off the drum set a bit. The neighbors will be happy.

Here is the reply to my email:
