Welcome to the forums. That looks like a nice setup you ordered. The wait is just going to kill you.
Thanks, I've been looking through the forums for a few weeks, so I figured it was time to join. The wait is going to be rough, though it will surely be well worth it.

For people in California I would say yes, probably even within that week after they arrive (that is, of course, if customs doesn't stop the car and no damage occurred during shipment).

For Hawaii, like in my situation, it two weeks to get the car from Cali to HI after it arrived, and then I still have to wait some more days until I can actually take delivery. So for Hawaii I would more say something like 2-3 weeks after arrival in Cali to take delivery

My car is officially in America!!! Got off the boat in Charleston today, then it will be heading up to the Performance Center where it will wait three weeks for me to come pick her up I live 4 hours away from the Performance Center and it's SO tempting to go look for it.
