If you look at the older posts he had a tpw of 8/18, so this might be it...

Post says he ordered orange. I thought that orange was on 0% constraint until yesterday (8/21)?

My 00720 is also 4B00. I wonder if shipping will start next week? I have called Shane at the museum twice over the last 2 weeks and he feels museum deliveries will begin Sept 2. Hope he's correct.

if they aren't on the car-carriers by tomorrow; we won't be taking delivery until after the holiday weekend.

There's quite a lot of car events that weekend.

Thanks GM

I don't think there's much difference between 3800, 4000, 4B00 or 4D00.

All still sitting in the lot.
