I still have a 5/3 delivery date but then my ship just landed at the VPC early this morning.
If you get your car before I do I swear I will get a Lexus out of spite and sue my dealer for non-refrundable down payment.

Imola, hopefully you are not going to get lumped in with the cars that are supposively waiting at VPC. M5board says its all backed up. Are you getting anything like Aero kit added at VPC?

Also, you shouldn't have a problem getting your deposit back. Most dealers will do it unless you special ordered a off the wall car like a pink E60.

Wow - just received an email that my car was just released from VPC and available for pick up Friday at 1pm. Maybe my bitching helped? That adds up to 12 days at VPC and 44 days from order to delivery. Just about what I have read on this forum.

Yep... 7-14 days at VPC. Now it's my turn to drool and hope I get my car next week. Enjoy the new ride. I guess you'll have it before your weekend trip?

Yeah... I'm getting the aero kit installed at the VPC. I wonder how much room they have for cars there. Sounds like there is a good backup and with a ship that landed today and another scheduled for Friday it could get full. I would imagine they will have to move cars soon.

My car is currently at the Oxnard VPC in California, and I suspect I won't see the car until next week some time. I'm just glad to know the car in on terra firma after a month of not being able to track or know where the car is.
Now, WMB, let's see if you fit Rudy's stereotype for new car owners..........you post, you post, you post......you pick up the car.....you promise pics, you love the car.....and we NEVER hear from you again!! LOL
Glad to hear you are close.....no sleep for you tomorrow night.....like a kid on Christmas eve, huh?
