GTR release!!

Hi guys.
Not to add more mistery or dilemma regarding the GTR release but I just received a call from the sales manager from my dealership telling me he was just notified EPA is releasing the GTRs tomorrow so to expect my car at the end of the week.
Can anyone confirm this cause I will be very pissed if my dealership is playing games with me.

Thanks.

2020 MB C63s Coupe RENNtech
I called my dealer in Orlando and he wasn't able to confirm this. He hasn't heard anything in regards to updated ETA. My car is built and waiting for delivery.....

More than likely your GTR is being held hostage in the Brunswick MB VPC.

Rumor has it that it MAY be released this week or around 7/15 by the EPA.

Ask your dealer what your MB Production Code status is.

Also, when it was off loaded from the ship.

IT JUST MAY BE CHRISTMAS IN JULY YET .

Regards

My car is B50 (produced not shipped) to be shipped to USA next week, but still no update on release from there. They still believe its mid July earliest.

FWIW: It'll be 20 days on the water from Germany to the US, 4-5 days in the VPC, then at least a week before it's assigned a truck IF there are no delays.

FWIW, I too heard the EPA finally signed off on GTR's and they will be starting to ship out to dealers this week.

S 560 4Matic 2020(Lunar Blue) and 2020(Emerald Green)
2020 S Class 4-Matic

Finally back from FL and pickup the new one Thursday, first sale of 2020.
Still have not found answer to how to download from the 2013's hard drive containing the hundreds of cd's loaded there.
Shame.

Emerald Green: similar to the old British Racing green only not lacquer but metallic with multiple clear coats.
