Well after a long 4 months wait and several false starts ( dealer BStroubles) I finally got my car's VIN #. Only thing is, when I tried to call it out over the phone to check the car's status, the dumb ass automated phone **** either garbled it or failed to hear the letters correctly. Any you guys have this trouble? Or is it just that the automated **** only trained to pickup on certain accents? ( Like it doesn't recognize my Texas accent)

If you're talking about the ERL don't bother with the VIN when checking your order...use the order number, dealer code, body type and you should be okay.
When I was waiting for my car I tried the VIN and it never worked.
 
That's about the time it left the factory headed for a boat in Baltimore. I suppose the agency I'm buying it through is some sort of middle man as opposed to a dealer. They keep telling me it's in Bremerhaven and has exited Customs therefor it should show up real soon. When the ships come in they must bring lots of cars and more than likely mine was the last one off the boat. Guess I'll keep waiting.
 
can someone check my order i have been waiting since aprill 5th on a 05 and now an 06.

order number 6099
dealer code 71074

i have just gotten c/u for the last forever on the phone and i just would hope someone could check on it for me.

There's a few Tungsten Grey's listed in dealer's inventories like what you ordered around here. I doubt they have the 18" wheels, but you can always add those later.............
 
Yup, found the same conclusion for you Yellowstang. And from what I've been told, yes, your middleman has ownership of it.
