Still waiting...

So my car is sitting on a dock in Baltimore, MD...waiting to go to my dealer in PA.

Does anyone know how long it usually takes for the carrier to pick up the car and drop it off to the dealer? It is only 100 miles from dock to dealer.

How long did you have to wait

How long did you have to wait from order to the dock? Did any of them come with a multimedia package?

It took a little less than one month from when I placed the order to when it arrived on the dock. I was told that the car was almost completely built when I placed the order. They just added my name to it.

My dealer told me that none of the cars that arrived in this shipment had the MM package. I would have ordered it, but they said it would be early October for a car with MM.

No, but my dealer assures me it will be "pulled" in Sept and I have it here by middle of October latest. Hope he is right. If not ...

well good luck to you. i ordered mine 2 weeks ago and was told the MM will hold it up until Mid-Oct, but if i ordered the 18 rims with it we might be looking at Nov. at earliest due to the indefinate factory hold on the rims.

for me it wasn't a big deal since i liked the rims on the 350 anyway, so i went with the oct date.
