if your car is headed for the east coast it only takes 10-14 days on the water to get from England to the U.S.
I would ganter to state that your car (and mine) should be water bound SOON. I spoke to my dealer yesterday who told me he would contact me 2 weeks before they recieve my car. So I would think the same would apply to you. However, calling LCU could save you a few $'s in air fare and other things if the dealer waits to teh last min...OneFastMiata said:So wouldnt that mean that our cars, at least yours and mine chris, are proabably built already and pretty close to being shipped, if not already?
true, time at the port will add 2-3 days on both ends (plus time getting to the port--not sure how long it will take to get from Lotus to the port)zvezdah1 said:Aty,
Lotus people told me 3 weeks or so total from UK to US east coast which includes time at both ports.

I just know from ordering a BMW and a MINI in the last couple of years that the time on the water is 10-14 days.
With those cars I even knew the name of the boat my cars were on! And the day they left and arrived at port!
You seem to know more hten the average bear.... ill take that over my speculation!zvezdah1 said:Jenn,
Think it's a good bet that the very early customer cars are already built and awaiting shipment. But just my opinion

Fantastic!X000000101 said:I have a deposit and am on a list, but my order hasn't been placed yet. My order is supposed to go in with the next batch, once the factory requests it.
Will there be 2 Elise's in Omaha, then?
