errrr could it be #26?

I am #8 at my dealer BMC of SF and I am expecting a VIN in the next week or two as well..

Mitch - I got my car from HRM today (#13)...Delivery could not have been easier - no surprises there...

I unfortunately do have a mechanical issue which hopefully is nothing serious:

Mitch, someone posted that they think they were color batching the specailly requested light blues together, and I think Waalabeeguy? posted he was getting the same color as you. Are you guys getting them all at the same time? I dont know if he got his either, maybe this is the reason for the delay.

This whole Lotus experience gets more and more frustrating.
a #13 car delivered ? #26 cars being built this month while Adamant who's #1 in SLC has no car and no Vin and is expecting another 50 day wait ?

In LA we have nothing. Closest demo is 45 miles and they won't let anyone drive it.

I will agree with you... This brings a hole new meaning to the recently coined phrase "Doomed ".... Cause lotus is shooting its self in the foot.

This whole thread worries me deeply... I'm mid 20's also and have been told to sit on my thumb until next year. Meanwhile we've got FVMC sitting on 9 cars.... this whole experience is just a sack of sh*t.

Thanks Lotus for giving me the third worst experience of my LIFE!

1st was building a house and 2nd was sinus surgery!!!!!!!!!! It's close run thing between those two - just that the house is taking longer.

Yeah, isn't it odd? I'm #8 and my car is going to be built this month. No rhyme, no reason to this build order.

I've got my deposit at Dimmitt. So far they've gotten in 10 or so cars. They are a pretty big Lotus dealership (they still have 3 Esprits in stock).

So, being in the mid 20's on the list, I can see my build date coming up.
