I got a week to go till delivery.
I've been reading and reading and reading and reading this forum day and night for the past 2 months, just waiting for my car to be built/delivered. I can't wait any longer. It's just not possible any more. How can I make the ship move faster? 
Anyone help?

I had a long wait as well, almost 3 months total. Just got it last weekend. The wait can be long and suspenseful, but it's worth it in the end. Even driving it off the dealer floor is quite a rewarding experience in its self.

yeah, me too!
and c300_993, I was told the exact same thing by my dealer. LA on Monday, then a few days to get here.
I got it from Walnut Creek, you?
I really expected this thread to be closed down by the moderators quick style... but I guess I'm not alone! It's just that the suspense is killing me and I needed to vent, like a girl (no offense). With my last car, the dealer had a manual on the lot, so there was none of this waiting business. Now that I know the arrival date, it's getting even worse. I began seeing visions!
and I can't "sleep, sleep, and sleep" at night because I keep reading this forum. and those visions!

My dealer told me that the car arrived on Thursday the 6th in port in LA. The car will be up North by Monday or Tuesday.
I wanted to drive it around this weeked, but I guess it'll have to wait.

I guess I'm one of the lucky few whose car actually came in a few days earlier than expected. I was expecting a Wed pickup but my dealer called me on the Saturday prior that I could have it that very day. So... it might still happen.
Congrats in advance!
