^^ The August 22 date - I feel it will be closer to the September 10th (with potentially a few more days) based on what we have seen with other people's experience with shipping/deliveries but maybe you will be lucky...and be here sooner.

My understanding is the dealership receives this timeline estimate from the factory. Here is a picture of what the dealership sent me.

Given it seems very similar to the text message you received, the salesman is probably quoting this timeline. I can vouch that it is only an estimate and got updated at least twice from the time of build.

It ended up arriving ahead of schedule for me and I just took delivery yesterday on July 18th. Take this information with the caveat that the car entered the port at Long Beach, that the dealership I took delivery was also nearby in southern California (so short truck transportation time), and that this was a special order LC500.

^^ That is a cool screenshot and that the dealer was willing to share with you - most wouldn't!

I think the sales manager might have access to this but my sales person is just too lazy to ask for it, was told he’ll keep me posted if there’s an update
