How long does it usually take from dock to a dealer in SF Bay Area?

It won't affect marked sold orders. You should still get the current price.

The sheet shows the increase in price for each model's BASE trim level - in the case of the S4, the Prem Plus is the base model so while the charge for the Prestige package stays the same, it gets added on to the higher base price for the Prem+. So yes, the increase effects the Prestige, but if you already ordered it, then you miss the increase.

I do not think it applies to any orders prior to Jan 4th. So your order should remain the same.

So my dealer said there was some (supplier?) issue with the silver inserts and that you now were getting the carbon inserts for free (which I wanted anyway). Interesting that this is the same amount as the increase. Maybe it's that? Either way, looks like I ordered at the right time

Probably to help pay for all of those water pumps they need to replace on the 2010s.
