Congrats! Had your status changed at all before you got the call? As of early this morning mines still hung up at VPC no status changes.

I hadn't been following the status of the build lately, so I don't know.

No, why would they ? It is a buy, not a lease. I do way too many miles for a lease -

My dealer still doesn't know when my C43 sedan will be released from port but evidently it's waiting for a software update. My lease expired September 10th so I've been going month to month until today. I just returned my C300 and the dealer put me into an E300 while we wait for my car to be released from port...whenever that might be.
