R8C - When did you get your call?

Searious · 03-06-2014, 07:29 AM

My TPW is coming up, 3/17, and am naturally anxiously awaiting my call from the museum to set up when I can pick up the car. For those who did the museum delivery, when did you get your call? I know I have seen 5-10 days ahead of TPW, so am expecting it soon...but....wait is definitely killing me knowing I could be in it in a month!

In my case the car was built August 28. I received the call from the Museum on September 30, and took delivery on October 4. Yes, that's a fairly wide gap but mine was held for extensive QC review (and I suspect a delay in my visible carbon top), as it was one of the very first Stingrays built - #196. I think most are getting the call within 2 weeks of build.

Actually heard from them today.... April 3 and I get to drive it! Wooooo

Cool! That's pretty much what I'm seeing these days, delivery about 2 weeks after build. Congratulations! And welcome to the R8C club!
