You sure did get bumped to the back of the queue.
Wow, as Corey said, that's outstanding mate. At the time I placed the order I naively assumed that the dealer could order my car right away and have it queued for build early in the new year (especially as I didn't order that many options). I've since learned that the factory doesn't guarantee a build year when an order is placed, so I suspect my dealer was just being careful to ensure my car was built in 2010, as I had requested. Add the rest of the delays imposed by JIT manufacturing and strong demand in other markets, and and a week 10 build it became.

C'est la vie. I'm not complaining - there's nothing that can be done about the situation, and there's no question the car will be worth every day of waiting!
