488 GTB stuck in New Jersey (port)

My new 488 GTB has been status 92 for 2 weeks and still no truck. Have others waited this long for their cars to be loaded on a truck? I want to go get it myself

 

What does dealer say about this? They have no control?

 

Snow didnt help

 

I was told by my dealer this week that my car was “on the water “ so it should arrive to Florida in about 4 more weeks. So not unusual it would sit for 2 weeks or so. Best, Kirk.

 

Pretty common.. especially with the weather. Mine was quick, but my friend has had the same issue as you multiple times.

 

It is my third car, so nothing new but I remain surprised Ferrari can’t find a simple way (like Porsche) to status a car on My Ferrari. It blows that you have to call your sales rep constantly to get a status which he can easily get over the internet. I still don’t see any completion photos on the site and the cool cigar box never arrived as advertised. I am also surprised that in this age that you can’t get a well document option list, pricing, and configuration guide when you go to the dealer. I recently reviewed the Pista option book provided by a Fchat member and it was so informative. My dealer didn’t even know it existed. All of this should not be sooo hard to get. With that said I will wait for my new baby and hope it is not breeched!

 

My 488 hit the NJ port during the snow storm in early January and my Chicago dealer had it in 6 days. It can be done quickly.

 

Congratulations on your new car! That's exciting!

Just remember, if Ferrari were like Porsche you wouldn't be getting a Ferrari.

 

My 488 GTB is due to arrive at NJ next week.

How long will it take to get to LA?

Really like the idea of gold rims especially with the wonderful looking deep rich red! Is that Rosso Mugello which tends to look more flat or something else?
Plane or boat makes a difference but sometimes they wait for a full truck before they leave New Jersey...

 

A couple of days if you let me drive it there!
Beautiful color combo
Good luck!

 

Gorgeous color. Good luck!

 

Based on hisorty. Once the car arrive in Nj, it takes 3-4 days in custom. based on your location, it’s should b at your dealer 4-5 days after. There is a black hole between ort ad dealer arrival

 

The car will arrive in NJ. and after customs. It 4 weeks to west coast and 3 weeks to southeast.

 

Good guess. Rosso Mugello and yes the gold will look great with this color.

I assume it comes on a truck from NJ.

I have just been advised from my dealer 7 - 12 days post NJ.

Not a coincidence. Ferrari has delayed delivering cars as they hit or exceeded their guidance numbers for the quarter. If Ferrari was coming up short, you and everybody else would have your cars.

 

Very nice bro , it’s different and I like that. Congrats man , I can’t wait to see more pics.
All the best , Kirk.

 

My bianco 2018 GTB arrived quite unexpectedly yesterday. I attended a dealer sponsored C&C and learned that a transport had delivered my car moments ago, I will post photos after the car has been cleaned and prepped. For the record, the car arrived 5.5 weeks after production had been completed. I am yet to receive the final production photo from myferrari (which imo is such a poor information support tool, it discredits the marque and should simply be shut down.

 

I was told by my dealer that the cars were held to quarter end as FN had a great quarter and didn’t need the revenue until Q2. With that said the horse arrived...

Congrats !

 

Btw, once the car hits port in NJ the dealer is invoiced and it’s recorded as a sale for public reporting purposes.
