Does that mean it’s on US soil, or could it just be an indication that it got released from whatever limbo it was in in Germany and is released to be shipped to the US?

From what I can see on my GTR codes, your car is still in Germany and is almost ready to be assigned a ship.

That puts you about 1 month away from receiving it IF there are no more delays.

Sorry!

Y sorry?

I would be thrilled with that news.

Gives me time to decide which of my clutching pearls is optional for added delivery drama.

I have so many clutching pearls.

My configuration is Graphite Magno with orange interior: planning some exterior orange details upon delivery. I initially wanted to spec magnabeam, but the configurator locked out that option. Figured black was a better option in the event I wrapped the car in the future.
