Here's my latest email from Jim Hopson:

Chris,

The first boat has arrived at the port. The vehicles are now being
processed through customs and must be checked out before we ship them to
dealers. We still expect the first dealers to get their vehicles the first
week in December.

The first wave of production got a little bit behind, but we are working
with Holden to recover the affected units before the end of the year. We
are not really expecting any significant delays.

Hope this helps!

Jim

As always Jim is there to help us. Big thumbs up to him.

This confirms what we've be obtaining covertly from our operatives 'in-country'. I love spying! :ph34r:

Hmmmm maybe I am overthinking this but does that mean that the Chijin went to Benicia before Tacoma and no news source in the bay area figured it out or that the cars were unloaded in Tacoma and the local papers here didn't firgure it out. Or maybe the papers didn't think is was a big story?

You know what that means.....

Smoky burnouts, joyrides, eating Big Macs in the back seat. Bomb sniffing dogs scratching up the doors looking for terrorist explosives, disassembly to check for weapons of mass destruction...

:P :P :P

Sorry I couldn't resist. Just thought you all might want to be a little more nervous. I'm just jealous since I won't see mine until next Summer/Fall. :D :D :D
