You actually HAVE the car or just ordered it? I ordered in February and ETA is 4-17-05. Status is "in transit" for the SS/SC.

I ordered my Arrival Blue with all black seats, sunroof, and side airbags on 3 March. I was told eight weeks so I'm figuring if all goes well, the first week in May... But you know this vehicle was orignally slated to be released LAST OCTOBER!! There's a thread here that makes perfect sense; about building a lot of SS's and then have them delivered to the dealers...

Recaros only come with the black on black interior. Congrats on the new car.

It is a factory order and I got the recaros even tho I havent sat in them yet, but definatly wanted the LSD so I went with it. But compared to others waiting for their cars I thought this was a short period. Should I expect many delays from the start or expect to see my car in 8 week. I will be hopeful but was wondering what you guys thought since some of you have more experiance. this is my first new car purchase

Even though orders were made last year, wasn't it that "actual production" of the SS/SC just started in early March?

I ordered my LS coupe (arrival blue) 25 january, checked status today it says it was on rail on it's way to Maryland. Then it will leave the port there next thursday for Germany and that's another 21 days on a ship. Once it gets to Germany it will take another week or two to get here (Italy). Atleast I know it's on the way
