Everyone that was imaged and waiting
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is for everyone that has imaged and has been waiting......I was informed that my car has been ship as of today 5-8-06......before that my dealer had no really information for me....I would call him up and he would say that he would call me with any new inform. So some dealers might be holding information or as someone said you can go from code 30 which I thought I was at last night too shipped...which he said I was at. He said to expect 13-21 days for delievery......I wasn't that suprised.....even though I am in minnesota and not california.....he is my information since I know all you will want to know
deposit 8-23-05
imaged 3-07-06
imaged accepted (code 30) 3-22-06
shipped 5-8-06
The shipping date (or the VIN) still doesn't mean anything. Mine was shipped on 4-18 and still has not arrived.
from what I can tell from your post-- your were told "in transit" on 4/18, right?
that doesn't mean shipped, it means its at code 4000, available to ship.
it didn't actually ship (code 4200) until 5/8, thats when the countdown begins.
I went 4000 on 5/1 and also recvd my invoice on 5/1. My dealer called me excited and said " your car is in transit!!" should be here in 2-3 weeks. Well, I knew better and told him to check the computer and tell me what the codes were. Sure enough, code 4000. That is not shipped. I then explained that even though the invoice says "in transit", that really means code 4000, which means sitting in a parking lot waiting for a train/truck.
We have seen people on this forum sit at 4000 for 2 days and for an entire month. So to everyone, don't get all excited when they say its in transit. Ask them to check they system and verify by using the codes (which aren't 100% accurate anyway) and go by that. Its at least the most accurate thing we have to go by even if it isn't perfect.
when he tells you your at 4200, then get excited and start counting down on your calendar!
