IIRC, US builds start end of Mar
Know of at least one SL63 030 buyer on SF Peninsula who's having MB airship his copy into CA to avoid waiting 3-4wks extra for shipping via boat.....
MB airships into LA, so car goes to VPC before being trucked up to SF; at Ferrari of SF, many repeat buyers have become addicted to "overnight" delivery...shipping by boat is so 20th century
....having their new Ferraris airshipped directly into SFO, and factory-owned Ferr of SF can function as a VPC for new F's...
Should start to see SL63 030 on road by mid-Apr.....

Mine is in production now for late-May delivery in the US. Unfortunately for my dealership, and for people who want one, the demand is greater than availablility right now (my dealership's first allocations were "sold" immediately). My dealership is very anxious to get more allocations to fill the orders of people who want to buy/lease one. And especially now, after reading all of the "first drive" reviews from the past few days, some people are going to be really disappointed to learn that when they walk into their local dealership to buy one, they are going to be put on a many-months-long waiting list.
