    My 812 just went Stage 70. It’s impossible to overstate how excited I am. I also just received the second build picture. Won’t be long now.

    Car shipped on the 16th. Typically how long does it take from date shipped to actually arriving at the dealer? Here is the final production photo:

    Ive found in my experience its usually around a month and half from shipment to dealer. Im located in the US and that timing can vary also depending on location of dealer.

    Mine was about 6 weeks to get to Cali, then another week at dealer doing preparation before delivery. Might save a week in NC?

    Way to go, you can't go wrong with Grigio Silverstone! That black carpet is a nice contrast color with those seats to. Counting the days....

    Looks great. I've had 2 Grigio Silverstone cars, my old Scuderia and my current Lusso. Can't go wrong, such a great color and really does a good job of showing the lines of a car.

    Agreed. GS is a great color on this body. My first 812 sighting in the wild was of this color, and I was wowed.

    You will love it. I have close to 6,000 miles on my 812 and it’s been the best front engined Ferrari I’ve owned. Congratulations!

    So I am losing my already fragile grip on reality. The wait is driving me bonkers. It’s odd. Even though I ordered it in Nov 2017, it was not until the car shipped on Apr 16th that the anticipation began to get the better of me? Any advice? Once it hits the dealer, it’s still going to be a couple weeks before I finally get it (PDI, PPF, transport to me out of state, etc).

    The wait is killer for sure, its about 4-6 weeks to North America but then once it hits your dealership its about a week or less for them to prep it for you. All the best, the 812 is special!

    Great spec; I’m based in UK and waiting for mine in almost the same spec as yours - but went for black wheels. My dealer said it was on stage 30 a couple of weeks ago but nothing since, do you know how long yours took from there and did the website tell you it was at a particular stage - mine still just says waiting list? Also I’ve had no pictures yet :( - but getting very excited after a long wait.

    For reference, my car took 3 months from Red 10 to delivery at my UK dealer.

    How are the cars transported from Italy to the UK?

    I am located in the US and my 812 just went 10R as well. So I am just trying to get an accurate estimate for myself.

    Thanks

    They are loaded on a closed truck and delivered by road. Don’t know whether channel crossing is by ferry or train - but crossing channel does not take long either way.

    Thanks - dealer just told me today that my. 812 at stage 60 and should be ready at my UK dealer by end of June. I’m guessing that is a week to 85. And then a week or 2 to UK dealer delivery and then a week or 2 with them to final delivery prep.

    I just saw mine at the factory last week for the unveiling and they told me 4-6 weeks for delivery. About 4 weeks to US by boat and then 1 to 2 weeks for customs.

    Just received 2 more build pictures of my Grigio silverstone ferrari. The dealer then told me today it is now at status 95 so it’s done and on its way to UK. It was therefore only a week between status 30 to 95.

    I think it should only be another week to delivery in UK so not sure if I’ve caught the Cadster up.

    Getting very excited.
