Default Car being delivered from Port of Davisville earlier than expected!

FWIW, I received the first U.S. 2013 A6 on 7/6 (or so I was told) and it still took 10 days to get it from port arrival to the carrier. (My dealer is one hour away from port, so only one more day to the dealer).
Just got word from my dealer that my A5 cab has been delivered to them today and I can take delivery tomorrow. The car arrived at Port of Davisville the evening of Wednesday 07/25 on the Onyx Ace.

So, a 07/30 arrival at a Connecticut dealer would seem to indicate little back up at that port, at least presently. The fact that dealers want to make their end of the month numbers probably didn’t hurt either.

Hope this means quicker delivery than anticipated for the rest of everyone’s cars that were on that ship and off loaded at Davisville!

I got a call from my salesman yesterday. He said that my car arrived and it looks like it's in a "sock" lol. Bc it still had the cloth cover on it. I am scheduled for pickup tomorrow(Thurs) night. I'm excited for pickup!
