Current lease is coming due next April, so decided to pull the trigger on a new car despite the crazy times we are living in….

Order Placed - 12/4
Production Number - 12/6
Build Week - 1/17

Will keep everyone posted, but fingers crossed we see it sometime in late February.

Nice!! Where are you in the build process?

At the port in Galveston now with a stop sale due to not having the RAM..... We'll see how long that takes

Sorry to hear that.

I Have the bernina grey with the red brakes and black wheels. Blue is looking nice and kinda growing on me.
What interior combo did you go with ?

I went back and forth on the caliper color, but ended up with the blue. I don't think you can go wrong either way. For the interior, I went black with the open-pored ash grain trim. I have a glossy wood now and can't stand the fingerprints, so the matte will be a nice change.

You should see your car by early February. The RAM issue usually takes about a week to resolve.

I would say early March. I ordered my 2021 back in December 2020, and it had no shipping issues, yet it arrived early march.

Recognizing that there are no deals these days, can you share with us how you did?

I got mine 540 order at 6% off MSRP, the car is now in SC with no recalls. Waiting to schedule a performance center delivery, hopefully soon.
