You're probably right. Hopefully I misread that. Five cars over two boatloads would be pretty pathetic!

I'm not too concerned about the lack of info. The cars are probably coming as quickly as they would if we were part of the "real" SoA... having the VIN would be nice but realistically it makes little difference. The only thing I'd do with it is use it to order the Badge of Ownership for the car!

I REALLY like my dealership too! They are absolutely awesome! And I totally understand that it's not their fault - all the way SDC runs things.

And indeed - I meant that my dealership gonna get 5 cars. Not all of the SDC.

Anyone get any updated news?

Last I heard the ALTAIR LEADER was the ship suspected to be bringing the first load of cars up to Boston. It looks like the next stop is Texas.

My dealer found (buried on the sales managers desk since 5-10) their dealer vehicle purchase order allocation report #05-12. On this sheet it lists the original sales order number that I got a while back with a vehicle allocation number that I hadn't seen before. The report also says that "all vehicles are planned for delivery through mid June" and that "vehicle identification number will be assigned before shipping".

By shipping I am assuming they mean on the transporter and headed for the dealer.

Also, Grimlock posted the following here:

Assuming that SNE and SDC share the RI port but no conformation on that.

SDC uses the port in Boston.

Also, my dealer confirmed that the boat my car is coming on will be arriving at the port on 5/31. So eta of early June.

Hopefully, other people's cars are on there as well.

Still thinking that ship may be the ALTAIR LEADER? It is scheduled to be in Jacksonville FL on the 26th.

Same for me. I guess since whole VIN is available - car went through the customs!
