Check your cars dudes … mine has a bigish dent in the hood, what looks like a rust spot on the rear bumper and a scratch on the fender.
ugh this is getting worse and worse

if you ordered a MY23 in Nov 2021, you should qualify for price protection via rebate on the MSRP increase (effective date was 3’31/22). Have a frank discussion with your dealer about getting your manufacturer rebate.

I have a ‘23 ordered prior to effective date, currently sitting on the dock in UK. After reviewing the updated build sheet, the MSRP increase was included. I contacted my dealer inquiring about price protection and after a week and a number of texts, they confirmed I qualified for an 87% rebate ($2001 of $2300) of the price increase. No straight answers on what the requirements were and why 87% yet, but at least that closes most the price gap at this point.

fortunately I was able to address this in advance, before my wife was sitting in her new Defender, Good luck!

Mine was $2001 of $2300 or 87%. No straight answer on why 87%, but as you said it’s not worth the (continued) fight

Just texted back and forth with my Sales Associate...we were originally scheduled for delivery on 7/22 (110 P400 X-Dynamic SE) but he told me that we're pushed back into August.

I asked if it was the Expedition roof rack, chips, or no info / something else and also if it was at a US port but haven't gotten anything back.

Kind of disappointed, it ended up building a week early and I was hoping delivery would be moved up accordingly, but we were originally expecting September / October for delivery when we ordered it in March so still not as terrible as it could be.

Just got a text my car is ready for pickup today!!! Ordered last September and allocated in March with a build of 5/27 as well, but showed up 2-3 weeks earlier than expected sans expedition rack (which has been back ordered). Maybe positive payback for waiting longer than most to get allocated. Will report!

2023 P300 S optioned out nicely for my needs! Car is great. Much more impressive in person. Small bummer that once I got home in garage found a couple swirl marks in hood that need to be addressed unfortunately. Hope can be buffed out.

wow! that’s good to hear! I’ve got the same build date on mine. Expected delivery 7/22, my wife’s birthday which would have been perfect, but now it’s pushed back to august due to transport issues in Europe and I have to get another birthday present 😆

This thing is way bigger and better than I expected. I had ordered the car without seeing one in person and coming from a 10 year old Rubicon, this is crazy. Love it so far. 110 SE X-Dynamic Silicon Silver, Acorn/Lunar/Lunar, 5098 Satin Grey wheels, Fabric Roof
