Exactly!

We picked up my buddies car on the 28th in riverside. His car got to the port 1/3 and his stop sale cleared 1/26 for RAM. Just a little timeline for reference. ( everyone else on that ship seemed to have that same timeline as well)

Thanks! Hoping mine arrives much quicker than that! I have no stop sales so I've been told…
Getting closer!

wishman · 02-02-2022, 08:31 PM

So what would be a reasonable timeline from arriving at port to getting on transport to dealership assuming no stop sales, etc.? 3-4 days? 1-2 weeks?

That's the million dollar question…
I am hoping no more than 7-10 days.

Just looked at older thread where Atlas Leader hit port on 10/6. Seems some folks in SoCal were able to take delivery as early as 10/10. Of course many variables at play but looks like potential for things to move quickly.

Yeah, definitely possible man. Depends on if you have any port installed options (M Performance parts), stop sales, dealer proximity to port, etc.

I would love to get this weekend. Lol. Time will tell..

I have no stop sales. I do have the MP front splitter that needs installing. My dealer is not too far from port.

Fingers crossed.

Finger crossed here as well. Looks like they're taking their time offloading cars given the ship is still at the port. My CA sent me a text yesterday morning that once my car is @ the VPC they will be able to provide me with an estimated timeframe. Hopefully not too long, but I do have the AMP stop-sale...

Grumpy514 · 02-03-2022, 02:54 AM

How long does it usually take the VPC to install M performance parts? Front Lip, side vents. etc. Does this normally delay it weeks?

abdulisraddd · 02-03-2022, 10:40 AM

Looks like she’s on the move again. Would genius be able to tell me if a work order has started? I really hope to have my car by the 17 so I can take it to big bear haha

iqstick · 02-03-2022, 10:52 AM

I called Genius yesterday evening and they told me my car was at the VPC and is estimated to be delivered to my dealer 2/6 which is a Sunday. Not sure how accurate that really is.

Yeah when my car arrived at port and I was able to drive it off the lot six days later

Usually the car arrives before the title so that can add an extra day before they will release the car

During normal times, a day or two. I don't anticipate my parts to delay things much at all. Lol We will find out!

Damn! That would be really quick! Calling now… which dealer again? Sorry, I know you've mentioned.

RockinPA · 02-03-2022, 12:10 PM

I was just told it's at VPC now. Estimated to leave 2/5 and arrive 2/6 to my dealer. That's really quick! Love it. Hopefully it's correct.

Same here! I was told delivery on the 6th but the genius lady says she highly doubts that because of the stop sale.
