Haha thanks.. it's been a while. Luckily I've had a bunch of distractions. Went to Japan, Greece, Croatia. Got back into photography and starting a business!

I'm in center city Philly but dealer is in Doylestown.

Very nice, never been to Croatia but it’s top of our list. We should do a weekend drive after you get your break-in done, so you can keep up. Congrats on the business . I just pulled a bunch of my photography gear out of storage, this car has inspired me, your photos did as well!

Yeah for sure, I need to figure out some fun drives around here!

Appreciate that, I just switched from my old 70d setup to an R6 with a RF 70-200 f/4 and 24-70 f/2.8... it's unreal. Blew my mind how much camera tech advanced in the last 3-5 years. Super excited to get some good car content and get back into the community.

Ha! I have the Sony version of those lenses for my A7iii Full-frame. These cameras now are bonkers tech wise and rather forgiving.

Let me know when it arrives. I'd love to see it.

Did you order through Portland or Kuni?

Portland. Got the first of the last three M3/4 Coupes through them (2001, 2008, 2015). Bought my first new BMW from their predecessor, Rasmussen, in 1973 right out of college (Inka Orange 2002) - that dates me!
Send me your production status dates and I'll put you in the spreadsheet.

What date were you Ready for Transport? It's been running 11-18 days from there to shipped, so you were close. Hope you checked with you CA - Genius and website can lag 3 days or more.

I would say the website can be more than 1-3 days off. Website showed me in final assembly on July 4, info from CA says I was turned over to sales on July 4. Website still shows me at final assembly.

Not to gloat, but it appears I have the high honor of highest running “final assembly” streak at 23 days per Greg’s spreadsheet. 😜

Way to go! And DON"T keep it up. And what was that 40 days from allocation to 112? Reporting can be way behind. I'm still Waiting for Transport 4 days after I shipped out. Have your CA check tomorrow.

I'm close behind ��

Are we sure all east coast deliveries leave from Velacruz and not Altamira? Looking at the schedules it really doesn't make sense for the east ships to go from Velacruz to TX back to Altamira and then towards the east coast.

Reporting lag

My Garage status finally changed to "in Transit" 5 days after it shipped. There was a weekend in there, but... I realize the timeliness of the reporting is not that critical for the average buyer.
