I have been trying to get answer about the Red Leather Restriction, so i put it to the big guys, what is your problem? Are you ever going to come forward and give an answer as to when red leather interior option is available to be shipped? What gives, and I am posting this to the so called Saturn big wigs that , supposedly monitor this site. Well if you weren't going to be able to handle the interior option at this time, why did you accept orders, and then lock them in. there a lots of people who read this Forum and as of this date the only question you have evaded is the Red Leather issue. I think, at risk of catching it, you should have someone come forward with an answer and estimated availability date. What is so hard about that? I am a long time Saturn buyer and will continue to be, no problem there, however there are a lot of first time Saturn customers who might form a bad opinion from this.
In my opinion it is pretty poor planning on your part. Any of you Saturn types that monitor site care to step up and answer this simple question? I sure would to see you do it.
:chill:
Breathe deep, Ernest. In two weeks or less, I truly believe you'll be able to look out the window and see exactly what is going on with your car.
We don't actually know that there is any problem or delay involving your car or any others with red leather. We only know that your order couldn't be altered anymore and they have limited incoming red leather orders. According to posts in a few other threads, the entire first batch of cars has already been built and is being shipped out to the individual dealers. If those posts are correct, then they really shouldn't accept any more changes to your order because your car has already been built.
The temporary limitation on new orders with red leather is likely due to their not wanting to have more orders for it than they can fill. It does seem to be very popular, perhaps a lot more than originally forecast. They'll start taking more orders for red when they know they'll be able to fill them.
As for a Saturn bigwig answering any of our questions on the site, I really doubt that would ever happen. It hasn't ever happened before that I know of. Sure, they read what we're writing, probably discuss amongst themselves, and likely even take action based on some of it. That would be the definition of monitoring the site. If Jill Ladjiak were to come on and start posting, it would become her full-time job. I'd rather all the Saturn honchos keep plugging away and working on getting our cars to us ASAP.
Just hang tight. It'll all be OK soon enough.
