I ordered my 2001 A4 on July 13 from a MD dealer. I have been keeping regular tabs with the dealer (after hearing horror stories about car swapping at the dealer) and got my VIN# last week. Right now it is in "AtPort" status.

Default If you don't have a VIN yet you've still got a ways to go

First thing is don't listen to a word your dealer says as far as ETA is concerned. They'll tell you anything to get that deposit. I was told I'd have my car in time for school (Sept.) well I had it just in time for Christmas.

Though this is not always the case it sure sounds like you're getting the same deal. Sorry I know what a killer the wait can be

You don't have to tell me how bad the wait has been. We are coming up on 3 months (for me next Friday). I can't wait. What status is your car at?

Default Sounds like me (archives)..

While your waiting, I'd check and make sure they put in the right order, seriously.

Oredered in early May and took delivery July 13.

Default Re: A4 wait

ordered mine in the end of may. Just got the VIN on Monday and was told it's sitting on the dock in Germany. The dealer said the end of Oct (optimistic), middle of Nov (realistic).
