I just called my dealer this morning and they told me that my ETA was 02/18/05.
Since my dealer is 2.5 hrs. away, I have to go on a Saturday. Should I count on it being there 2/18 or are they usually a few days off. If they are accurate, I'll be getting my steed this saturday!!!!!!

Mine was right on the money, dealer told me eta was 2-10 and got there early afternoon on 2-10. There have been members here that have gotten them a little early or even a few weeks late. So it does vary every part of the spectrum

I was told I should have it by Christmas (not even close). Then given specific dates---first 2/4/05, then 2/10/05, now "by 2/18/05". See sig below for complete details. Stay tuned.

I'd call before hitting the road if I were you. Don't assume it's in.

You're right; and I am thankful that the car is on the way.

It is just frustrating when the info you are given is meaningless; they lose credibility when target dates are continually missed.

It will be here when it gets here. Not much comfort in that truism.

Getting back on topic, ETAs are often not accurate, so call before you drive any distance to the dealer (especially the originator of this thread--- 2.5 hours away).
