Boat Fidelio

Cargo tracking says ours came off the boat on 8/22/08. No date from Samantha on when to expect it in Bloomfield. The final home for ours is Hastings.

Reservation #1323

Call from the dealer

The dealer called and our car is suppose to be delivered to the dealer today Aug 28 or tomorrow Aug 29. That would take it one week from Baltimore dock to Detroit.

Not Yet

I guess the dealer was wrong. I was expecting a call today the 29th with the final invoice but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Can't arrange financing til we have a final invoice.

Still waiting

I am going to call non stop this week. Dealers don't care when we get our cars. I am paying with cash and I want the car. Its been over a year. I just bought a new Honda and the dealer kept me there almost 2 hours while they ditidled around. I am not doing that ever again. That's really wrong that you could not even get a phone call as they know what the final invioce is. I hope you get them through this on Tuesday. Good luck...

Picked It UP

Picked it up 9/3/09 too. Got a good test drive home in the storms and rain. It was after 10 p.m. before we got home. Having fun today even in the rain. No complaints.
