Default First 60 Defender reach US port

From Land Rover's FB page yesterday afternoon. They said these are the first 60 Defenders at US port that will ship to dealers. Pretty cool.

Are these dealer demo cars or bound for customers?

I don’t see a three door anywhere. This must be the showroom trucks. Still great to see none the less. Anyone else going to visit a dealer soon to see one?

What LR should have done is had a bright orange one sitting right in the middle as a teaser for the next upcoming “challenge” if you will.

These might have been the ones used at the Palm Springs 4xFAR launch event. They all appear to have all-terrain tires.

I a new Defender 110 at the Pittsburgh car show last week. It had a sticker on the back stating that it was a prototype vehicle. Very cool looking and a bit bigger than I expected. I had been holding onto my Jeep Commander for far too long hoping the new Defender would come out sooner but had to replace it in 2018 with a CPO VW Touareg TDi (diesel) . I think this buys me a few years to watch and wait for the new Defender become available as a CPO and/or work out manufacturing bugs for the first year of so. I would love to have a basic 90 with pull back canvas top.

You have a build date? Where are you located?
My order status is coded Holding Pool. I'm being told it mine won't be delivered until around May.
