Just heard from the salesman at my dealership and my 550i is at the VPC in Spartanburg, SC and should be at the dealership by this Friday!! I will, hopefully, have my car by this weekend. Based on my tracking, the car just arrived at the port in Charleston on Sunday so they moved it out pretty quickly. From what I understand, they give sold cars priority over inventory cars at the VPC.
I will be returning my LS 460 early, but can't wait to get into the car.

mind to tell us when did you order yours? I ordered mine on the first week of November. Some said it takes about 50-60 days, and I just "can't wait to get into the car" like you. ![Devil](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/devil.gif)

How come you are getting rid of the LS460? I heard that car was amazing (from a technological standpoint). Congrats on the new 550. They are sweet!
