nice! when I was at dealers on Friday it said

holds: release

so not sure if that means release to market or a hold on releasing or what!

this is a good find!

Is yours at the port now?

MikeStammer · 08-16-2020, 03:19 PM

car came off boat on Friday afaik as the boat left for Florida on Saturday I believe

no update on the website as of today but I'll see what tomorrow looks like and maybe follow up with dealer.

Awesome!

Mine is still at port as well, not sure how long it will be at vpc. Could be waiting on parts, I'll call today and see if they have any ideas.

Shouldn't be long though 😊

MikeStammer · 08-17-2020, 10:06 AM

narco was told its scheduled for VPC today and then out the door. No more holds in place

i hope your parts stuff goes quickly!

Great news!

Ck00 · 08-18-2020, 10:04 AM

Any updates? You guys are on the home stretch!

MikeStammer · 08-18-2020, 10:34 AM

I just called 800#.

according to them, the car got to VPC at midnight and is scheduled to ship out tomorrow with Moore Transport.

scheduled delivery is Aug 23 (Sunday), so possibly I will get it Monday or Tues of next week.

once I get it I am immediately dropping it off for full xpel + tint which will take another 4 or so days.

I do not know if narco is in same situation as me. I did not have any additional parts or anything getting installed at the VPC.

dans1 · 08-18-2020, 12:32 PM

I just got an update as well:

Arrive At VPC: 8/11/20
Ship from VPC: 8/19/20
Dealer Delivery: 8/22/20

Looks like it takes about a week for the port installed options.

MikeStammer · 08-18-2020, 12:33 PM

how long of a wait once it ships from dealer to get to you? is your location still Northwest USA?

Just under 2 weeks, then straight in for xpel, then i'll enjoy it for a week or so and then drop it for radar install.

MikeStammer · 08-18-2020, 12:38 PM

i may do a dash cam at some point toward end of year. does not look like too bad an install

what detector you going with?

Ck00 · 08-18-2020, 01:06 PM

What % tint you guys going for?

I was researching uniden r7, valentine gen 2, and escort 360c.

I'll go 24% , thats the limit here...ive gone darker and the sheriffs here like to use that as a reason to pull people over to test.

Check out the Radenso RCM, its expensive but its the best there is for a car like this.

I have an auto AV guy that does them on a regular basis, i wouldnt dare try it, and im a tech guy lol

they can integrate them into the dash, my guy laser cuts them in so they look like a part of the car.

Here's on he just installed in a friends truck:
