I was stalking their website every day... if you know your VIN it'll show up there the day it arrives at the store.... they need a few days to prep/PDI... and Ray was amazingly communicative along the way... just a great store. Hope your car lands very soon!
That's a proper garage, and stable of horses, sir.
Thanks man. Was using one of the car websites to check but much easier to just their website. My VIN isn't on there, unfortunately. Hoperfully soonI was stalking their website every day... if you know your VIN it'll show up there the day it arrives at the store.... they need a few days to prep/PDI... and Ray was amazingly communicative along the way... just a great store.

Same boat, same dealer, and same situation. I feel ya bro.
Going up to the dealership tomorrow morning for a conjugal visit. If I get any decent photos, I will be happy to share. For those trying to keep track: VIN: xxx1975, Initial deposit July 15, 2022, build submitted Aug 29, 2023, off-loaded Newark, NJ, April, 7 2024 (thx Nova!) and Baltimore PDI completed May 3rd, 2024 and dealership arrival May 9th. Clearly a beneficiary of the LIFO parking/staging strategy at Lotus!I am one VIN behind you and was on same boat so there is hope! Congratulations!Quick update: Zach at Eurocar called this morning to say my Osmium/Ice Gray is at the dealership (Lotus of Orange County). Spoke with Cole (finance mgr) and he said he couldn't touch Navy Federal Credit Union rates so he sent over an invoice that had no surprises (no ADM - FE 2.0 pricing) so I could submit the application. Asked for a firm quote from their preferred PPF installer (Elite Clear Bra in Huntington Beach) and he confirmed - $6,995 full wrap (no seams) using XPEL Fusion (which has the ceramic baked in) and $895 for ceramic coating the wheels/brake calipers. I suggested ceramic coating all of the black plastic vents/sills and he said they would like to take a closer look before quoting but they thought they could be included with the wheels/brakes for $1200 total. I'm gathering funds and will make a decision on PPF/Ceramic coating by Monday. Wrap will take 3-4 days and Elite does have some availability this coming week which should match up nicely with putting the monies in place. Targeting delivery no later than my birthday on the 20th.
FYI - I do ceramic on wheels/calipers for 250 and that includes heavy cleaning and polishing as usually most vehicles don't do it brand new. $900 is crazy high for new with little to no usage.Quick update: Zach at Eurocar called this morning to say my Osmium/Ice Gray is at the dealership (Lotus of Orange County).

Extremely interesting - I may be wrong but does anyone recall as well that the initial UK data (it may have been in Harry’s video), Hethel Yellow was the most popular, or very close with Seneca. I also remember noticing when the first cars were delivered in the UK and people were posting pickups the Hethel seemed to be the most popular - clearly a difference in tastes by geography.
It's amusing that the display colors for the vehicle color pie chart are almost entirely unrelated to the vehicle color.
I would love to participate but cannot, this entire thing turns my OCD anxiety up to 100!
I don't know the UK data, but there was an order tracker a couple years ago...most USA and Canada entries (about 200) and this is how the colors broke down. Of course, this could have been even before many had seen color samples or pictures of cars in person and I think is before final configurations and deposits were required, so may have changed. Interesting nonetheless.
Oh my! I actually spent some effort matching the pie slice colors to be close to the car colors, but I think the introduction of additional data cause the Google Chart to shift or something. @VL3X @KCMO68_510 fyi... sorry for the aneurisms!

I would assume that's Meridian Blue.
