Could you outline timelines of your order from start.
I am working on an order and wondering how long it took to get TPW.

Well, a good portion of the time between my initial order date and the date I received a TPW was during the M7 constraint. That makes my timeline basically incomparable to normal orders, unfortunately.

I just received the good news that my GS Also has a TPW for 8/22! That manual constraint was a killer. It came out like the week after I ordered the car.

Congrats guys. I ordered my car May 24th and got caught on the M7 constraint and it is now caught up in the red caliper constraint. What is next?
