I finalized my order in August, 2023. Tony said they are looking at a summer build. Possible Sept delivery

gotcha, I did the same, finalize build in aug 23, with the ole Spring delivery...so its spring now. I spoke with Tony last week, said he hopes to see cars in a few weeks. We shall see, Gentry got their first 6 yesterday I think, so it's a sign that cars are making it into Canada now.

Was speaking with Paul from Gentry Lane last week, Gentry Lane has 12 now + 1 dealer demo car. When he spoke with the truck driver delivering all the Emiras, he heard that 4 cars have been delivered to Oakville.

Tony just called me. My car arrived. He said they got 10 cars last week. Hopefully others in here are in this delivery.

Curious if anyone that picked up their Emira got the PPF done through the Oakville dealer ? If you did, let me know your thoughts on the work done. I’m still months away from taking t delivery, he has presented me the options although I’m thinning of having it done locally.

I had planned to use the dealer then saw the work the guy did on the first cars that arrived and it was not high quality work, so I shopped around extensively and found one of the top guys (Kaval - Make It Shine, he worked on the first Emira delivery in Canada which is now on YouTube). Picking my car up from him tomorrow morning. We did full PPF exterior and interior, ceramic on the PPF/glass/calipers & rims, ceramic window tints, and windshield protective film. My dealership is no longer working with the original PPF guy and is now using Mina from Le Mans detailing, I’ve seen the work and it’s night and day from the original guy. Check the work being done on other cars at Oakville and make sure they’re doing full wrap of edges with emblems removed etc. If you don’t like what you see I can connect you with Kaval, also Gentry will work with Mina to do Emira’s even if not bought through them if you prefer going through a dealership.

What did Oakville do regarding front license plate? Did they use something like what I have seen that bolts underneath?

Yes - they sell the front plate mount that bolts to the underside. I already had purchased one from GRP, so I just gave them mine when I went in to sign some things.
