Congratulations! Anticipation is half the fun, IMO. Your and your wife will appreciate it that much more when it comes.

But I am surprised though. Over a month from beginning to end of production? I know extended leather and individual color gets taken off the assembly line and finished separately, but I would still expect it all to get done much quicker than this.

Or did it wait a long while to get moved to port? Mine made it within days of finishing assembly, but I know it can get delayed sometimes.

It was a month for build went into quality check for 4 days, 1 day to transport and now 1 week now in Port waiting for a ship.

Honestly I dunno how long it was actually to build but that was what I was seeing on the site. It was like in paint shop for a week or so.

It sure is . I just got mine one week ago and posting pics is pointless as they look nothing like the car does in person. My jaw dropped when I saw the car for the first time inside the Performance Center, and I can't believe how spectacular the color is to see in the flesh.

It absolutely is....I was told when mine was dropped off at the dealer, most of the sales guys ran outside to gawk at it.
