Can't wait to see my car. Congrats on the M3 (probably my ideal car, if I had fewer children).

VDC is right there at the port... I am not sure how long it takes to get thru VPC, but I would assume it is determined by the volume of car there already, any damage that might have been done to the vehicles, or any accessories that they are putting on.

Just spoke with my CA and he said he expects my car at the dealership on Monday 9/24. He said taking delivery on 9/25 as planned would be no problem!

Have you guys left the VDC yet?? I called my CA today, and she said I was still at the VDC, and she didn't know when the car was being trucked to the dealer. I would assume that if there are no problems with damage to my vehicle, I should see it next week. BTW, my CA didn't know that if there is damage done to the cars during the boat trip, that the VDC fixes it. She thought that it was the dealers responsibility. I am not giving her flack, one because she is cute, and two she is new.

You can call the VDC directly ... at 912-267-8500, but they aren't going to give you any info till Monday. Just give them you VIN.

My CA told me the next call I'd receive was when the car arrived, so I'm leaving him alone. LOL about your CA. I'm glad I didn't have a cute female CA, as negotiation would have been more difficult.

My CA told me that the Brunswick VDC was having computer issues - so the status has not been updated since Friday. The cars could be on there way to the dealers now, or the cars could be sitting at the VDC. Hopefully, we will find out tomorrow.

Thanks for the update. Hoping tomorrow will be the day they arrive as I've already planned to take Tuesday off to pick the car up and hoping to have OptiCoat applied when new.

Oh no! I just callled the VDC. They said that there was a "dent in the left front rim, and that they have to replace it. It might take 6-7 days to get the rim."
How often does this happen? What does this mean? And should I refuse delivery? |

My CA just emailed me, to let me know that status hasn't changed since Friday.
Accessories are still being installed (Carbon Fiber Spoiler and Lip).. It probably hasn't changed status because of the computer issues. Might be on truck already?? We should start a support group, cause we are all in need of some good psycho-therapy. |

How did you get thru to someone?? I was always transferred to voicemail. I wouldn't refuse delivery... if it is just a bent rim. You have wait all this time, let them try and fix it.

I agree with Dominion. Let them fix it (and maybe see if they'll throw in wheel insurance as well).

Oh - Just saw your posts after I started a thread on this issue (http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthre...0#post12731730)
DominionXX: when I called the VDC, I asked the operator to transfer me to "someone that was at their desk." That is how I spoke with someone. ksqrd: What is wheel insurance? What does it cover and who is it through? |
