Allegedly my stop sale has been lifted after 2 weeks at the German port and more than 40 days at the New Jersey VPC (landed 6/7 2 days before the stop sale). Calling Genius tomorrow to confirm/corroborate because at this point I wont believe it until my CA sends me a picture of it at the dealership

Genius says it was released to carrier on the 17th and is supposed to arrive at the dealer today.

Hope your CA is working and you get confirmation it arrived! What a delay!

Thanks Vitacura He's on vacation all week and the sales manager hasnt called me back since I called this morning and left a message asking him to let me know if the car arrives. Tracking is still showing at the port but I know that can be very behind

No news, doesn't look like it got there overnight and it's been crickets from the dealer....Losing out hope for being able to pick it up this weekend.

I finally got my vehicle. After the stop sale was removed it took about 3 days to get to the dealer but now that it’s here, the wait was well worth it 💙

It will get there soon! Don’t lose hope. There’s a good chance you’ll get it this weekend!!

Got a call yesterday it will now arrive at the dealer on 7/23, after it was released to carrier on 7/17

weekend delivery will hinge on whether they get the Manufacturer Statement of Origin in time. It only needs to be driven about 3 hours north and it's been at the NJ VPC since 6/7 so it's extra frustrating. I thought I was affected by the key fob stops sale based on when my tracking info updated but turns out I was the first day of the RAM stop sale.

Congrats on getting your vehicle Mdawg7 ! I went with Bernina as well, cant wait to see it on something larger than a paint swatch. Wishing I went with MSport and Extended Shadowline right about now...

More pics, please! I ordered the same exterior spec.

Car arrived at the dealer today but no MSO so they cant deliver the car until they get that. They might get it tomorrow but the way things have been going I'm expecting next week at this point. Glad to hear people are saying it's worth the wait.

I can send you a video of it that my broker took via email! Haven’t had a chance to take many pictures of it but it definitely gets a lot of stares! And people are always shocked to see a girl driving it HAHA definitely makes a statement on the road

Thank you btw! I feel like me and you are in the same time frame but a week apart. My car arrived Thursday and I expected delivery Saturday but ended up getting it on Tuesday evening due to transportation of the vehicle on the flat bed. Trust me I get your frustration and I was livid during those couple of days but things happen for a reason. Trust me I’m in love with this car and I’m okay that I waited a couple days. It wasn’t ideal but this beauty made me forget about the delay haha! If that helps!!

Mdawg7 who did you use as a broker, and would you use them again?

Looks amazing. That color is why I went with the M550i over the new M3C!

MSO got there today! Pickup first thing tomorrow! Finally!

Congrats!! Show us pics if you can! Btw I used Autopia and the brokers name was Sam. They’re big on lease hackr. The shadow line package can always be added by getting a chrome delete at a shop. M package was a big thing for me tbh but I’m sure your car looks gorgeous without it!!

Really amazed by the color in person, also glad I didn't opt for the V8 this thing is plenty quick. Now that I see it in person I'm more than happy going the route I did.

Congratson the car! it looks great. BTW, not tobe a neophite but how did you "lift" pics to this site? I tried to cut and paste as well as look for an "upload" feature to show delivery progress of mine.

You can use imgur for free to host the image that you can upload from your computer or phone and then you can use the option to get the BBcode link that starts with “[img]” the paste that into the reply.

You can add pics right to the thread via mobile app or computer. On mobile just press the little paper clip icon and then "Attach from Gallery".
