welcome pjn670 !

Looks like Lincolnwood must have a lot more folks getting their cars through that dealership as Lake Bluff is up to 1188's already

welcome to the waiting game!

Put me in with Lake Bluff (we're in Lake County, village limits of Lake Zurich) patiently waiting at 1420.

I took delivery of an orphan yesterday from Lincolnwood. Sliver / Black, comfort package with every accessory you could order. Great car, I just can’t imagine how it was ever orphaned.

Billy Cooper and everyone else at Lincolnwood were great to work with. Only good things to say about my experience with them.

Too bad they didn't do a final confirmation (with additional deposit to weed out the less serious) before they manufactured the cars....

(Maybe this has been said a million times elsewhere).

Delivered!

Picked mine up from Lincolnwod today. They said there was a holdup in Baltimore and that the shipments should be getting more regular. As of today, they've delivered 74 . . .
