Quote: Latest update is that my car is on the Traviata en route towards the Panama Canal. ETA into LA is 5/10 and 5/17 is the ETA at the dealer. It’s getting close!

Anyone else in the Traviata? @expatbrit updates on yours?
How long will it take to get it? Mine is going to take 110 days. Dealer hasn't provided any tracking info.

I ordered 1/18 and looks like I would take delivery end of May, so about 4 1/2 months end to end

Yup. Also on the Traviata, it seems. Don't have an updated ETA, but I'm assuming I'm on the same track as @Juancl

It will be interesting to see if our vehicles show up earlier than the projected dates.

Mine showed up 1 month early. Builds are going well and faster since COVID 19 has abated. Ordered mine Dec 19, est was April 9, arrived Mar 19. She is a beauty.

So, my D90 is still making the voyage across the Atlantic, and I figured there is an accessory I should have included with my order but did not (Front under shield). I figured I would either have it installed by the dealer or do myself. I reached out to my CA (which as I have said before has been awesome) to ask what it would cost to install by the dealer and he responds that it can still be added to the order (since it would be installed at the port of arrival), so I went ahead and added it and saved myself the hrs it would have taken me to tear apart the front of the car or the $$$ it would have probably costed if I went the dealer route. I am a happy man! Did not know this could be done like this, but makes perfect sense. Posting just in case someone else did not know this and had some accessory regrets...

Oh wow I did not know this can be done ... not sure if it's just a US thing or it can be done anywhere ... I am from Australia. My car has been built but still 8-10 weeks for it to arrive. Do you have to pay the dealer on a separte invoice ? Or is it included in the cost of the car?

@p400_au my CA told me it gets added to the build so included in sticker. He sent me the updated build sheet showing the addition. Hopefully it is the same in Australia.
