Sooner than you think

Hi All,
Just joined the group and scanned through the threads. I've been waiting for mine a long time BUT! There is a way to get yours faster. You all know the economy sucks right now. Some people who ordered their car and when it arrived - they cancelled! So these cars go to immediate sale. I went for my test drive on Friday 3/28 and there was exactly the car I would have ordered, and then some for sale that day! I did not have my financine in place so I could not get it and it sold the next day. As of yesterday, they have one other one a yellow cabrillo. They got in a shipment Saturday and Ricardo said they expect another one this Saturday. All I can say is check with the center often - you might get lucky!

PS - these are often called Orphans and some place are charging to be on a waiting list. I did not find this at the San Diego center - it was first come first served.

LadyG thanks for the heads up on some more Orphans. Be sure to give more information on your location because right now, we don't know where you or Ricardo hail from. Are you in San Diego?? Which dealership and do you have Ricardo's telephone number handy. Thanks, Regina

The center is the one in San Diego. Ricardo's phone no is 858-430-2304. Hope this helps.

We picked up an orphan yesterday at the LN dealership after being on the orphan list for a little over a week! They had two - the one we got (Passion Coupe) and one other (Cabriolet) that was already spoken for. We were so excited when we got the call since we've been waiting almost a year for our car. They had received a rather large delivery of cars over the weekend so it looks like deliveries are starting to pick up!
