shipfinder.com shows it just off the coast of GA. We should be right on schedule I think.

Awesome!! How long is your dealer saying it takes from arrival to being ready to get picked up?

(Of course you could be like mine and be at the port, booked on the ship, and not make it on because its full - but hopefully not!)

Of course the California Highway's information is delayed. What was I thinking expecting it to be a simple and satisfying flow of information showing that it docked on time. It's only showing up on 1 (shipfinder.com) out of the 5 tracking sites I'm using, and on that one it's just floating near shore.

Well hear is what the Brunswick Pilot Office told me. (they are the captains that take the vessel to the dock) They will board the California at 18:00hr (6pm local) today & she will be at the dock around 20:00 hours.
My office in Wilmington works with the Cape Fear Pilot Office so we know when ships are docking.

OMG, I completely understand, I was in the exact same boat. I'm not thrilled at the current colors and ended up ordering a 2013. If a new color becomes available I'll have the ability to change the order before it hits production. So far, the only changes that my MA has told me about was the change to the BT and satellite radio. I'm going to give him a call in another day or so to check in to see how things are going with the order. I'll let you know if I hear anything about new colors (I'm personally hoping for Kite Blue),
Unless your dealers out there are giving you a good deal for a 2012, I'd hold out for the 2013. It's a matter of a week or two delay, and it will add more value to your resale someday. BTW, I had a dealer tell me he couldn't order a 2013 and best case it would be Sept... It was a sales technique pushing me towards getting a car they had in stock. He called me the next day offering to place an order for a 2013... I told him to pound sand and ordered from a different dealer.
