It would be interesting to know if this a a closed stop sale or another car shipped to dealer with an open stop sale.

I didn't have a stop sale on the US side but I believe I had one in Germany as it was At Port for 3 weeks in Germany. That was before I knew about the recall tool.

Does a two day hiatus in new posts on this thread mean that we are all in the "acceptance" phase of the grieving process?

Fully. I contacted my CA and was told that my financing will be honored, whenever it arrives. After that, my anxiety over this car went just a bit down

yes, I was thinking the same thing last night when I was checking for others being closed. Also I wanted to feel some consolation knowing I'm not alone.

There’s been no movement since the Lexura burst of closed stop sales. Til someone here reports a closed status, I have become comfortably numb.

Man, Jadeite's car arrived in Baltimore same time as mine. I don't think he or she has had any movements at all. Wishing you all get your cars before Christmas.

Let's hope this week they will get a batch in and. Lear our cars out. We may need to go to Baltimore and picket the port.

I contacted my CA yesterday (dealership was closed) via email to see if they would honor the Military Incentive if 1) delivery goes beyond Jan. 3 and 2) next year's Military Incentive isn't as favorable as the current one. I was a bit surprised that he responded immediately and indicated that he would look into it.

More surprising is that he said their dealership (a Baltimore area one) had around fifteen M3 sold orders with the RAM issue and all but 2 had been fixed. Based on the non-scientific sample of folks on this thread, it's hard to believe this.

Shocking. But there is probably some element of reporting bias to this process

JDUNITNOW · 12-06-2021, 12:19 PM

Maybe they are the ones getting our damn RAM and that's why we are sitting at Baltimore for over a month.

You know what? You might be on to something. 15 M3's mean that this dealership is not a small one. I am thinking they are prioritizing the bigger dealers' orders. This is just a a conjecture though..

Gustiemo · 12-06-2021, 07:07 PM

Hey guys, just got off the phone with Genius and they said my M3 work order for the RAM module at the Baltimore vpc has not been opened yet. The car arrived on 11/24 (Hawaiian highway). The vin tracking app shows "open" on the status so i'm confused...

I’m with you. I called last week and no work order opened

I was on the HH also and my car has a work order open. There's no remedy, but there is a work order.

ElHeffe · 12-06-2021, 08:59 PM

Today my car changed from At Port to In Transit. For the past week At Port, two days were VPC stuff (no work orders but I guess sitting and waiting to be inspected) and then 3 days of waiting for the carrier to pick it up. Dealer should get it tomorrow or day after but I can't pick it up until Saturday.

Gustiemo · 12-07-2021, 06:08 AM

I'm just going to stop thinking about it and concentrate on other things. Worrying isn't going to make it come any faster.
Its kind of funny though, I have the winter tire/wheel set waiting at the dealer and got the G20 all season mats and cargo mat at my house. Had me sitting here full of anticipation. Hopefully it comes before Christmas....

I feel your pain. I have a set of tires, a crap ton of detailing supplies and a front license plate holder just sitting in the empty spot in my garage.

LimeRock · 12-07-2021, 07:46 AM

This may be dramatic, but I've given up hope it will arrive anytime soon. I've already stored my 911 for the winter, so I'm looking at other makes/models. If the right one comes along….
