Got my VIN 5 minutes ago! MF 452
LR/Blue/White/19s, early June order
Long Island NY

Congrats on the Vin but, early June order?!! What?!!

 

[CongoBongo]

Congrats....still waiting patiently on my early May order with a white on white

Exact same situation. Still looks like 1-2 months out for me….

Same build, same order date, and we wait while later orders are filled. Makes no sense to me. I'm currently December 29-January 18. I am on a list at my MB dealer to test drive an EQS when one comes in.

I'd agree but not the MQS. Audi Etron GT would be the next alternative when it's released.

After receiving the VIN about two hours ago, looks like my Delivery Dates have changed as well

11/6 - 11/12

I was definitely getting disenchanted as May/June orders were being fulfilled before mine. I can honestly say, that now the account shows the VIN as well as the Payment option - Feeling 10x better.

Hang in there guys/gals

My plan B - Was the Audi A6 E-Tron (See Below - NICE 435 mile range)

435 miles on what testing cycle lol? The EQS got 478 miles WLTP and we all know how that went (2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS Gets 350-Mile EPA Range Rating). Actually yeah here you go; WLTP: audi a6 e tron range - Google Search
So maybe 400 at best EPA, if not lower.

Phew that A6 E-TRON is quite gorgeous though. I'm quite excited to see what the VW AG PPE platform delivers (hopefully quad motor Porsches), but cycles are really important when hearing touted range figures.

Still waiting on mine. White on white. Ordered in Feb.

eTron GT has been available for a while; not a lot available but you can easily see them online on Cars.com at Audi dealers across the country; kind of run about $110K+ typically.

ARE THEY OUT OF 21'S THE DRAMA OMG

 

[JBFMCAR]

Jealous. Same config, ordered battery day (9/2020), in Maryland, and still no EDD, just a range that keeps moving out (Nov 6-Dec 4). June was after the price increase, right?

I got my order in the day before the price increase just by luck.

Still some of us waiting even longer...

 

[impastu]

Hey all, I just got an email containing something called a "Bill of Lading". I'm assuming this is a notice to the customer that the car has just finished its transit by train? Anyone else familiar with this sort of document on the east coast?

Strange. A BOL shouldn’t go to the customer.

 

[MFrunkerOG]

I wanted to give a shout out to @impastu, @Btrflyl8e and @cwanja - you three have helped keep me company in my misery. And now that my misery is coming to an end, I will promise to help keep you company in yours!

By not sharing any photos until I see you guys get your VINs at least!

Oh yea, @doubleshot too!

ARE THEY OUT OF 21'S THE DRAMA OMG

No! They never exit any drama! They only add new dramas! Thereby reducing the impact of said older drama!

ah it's been a while since I looked at inventory

Don’t do it! That humongous grill on that etron invalidates the whole car! Would you let yourself be seen in that grill?

Took delivery today.

The car looks beautiful -- haven't completed the inspection yet, but here are the things I've had a chance to play around with:

It took over 2 hours to pair my phone to the car. And then it keeps losing the signal and I can't control the car. Not sure if that means I will need to carry the key fob just in case?
It says there is Sirius XM somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
The rep said there are tutorial videos in the Entertainment center, but neither of us could find them. We just defaulted back to the ones in the app.
Autopilot beta was there to be enabled, then it wasn't and said I wasn't in the correct region, then it was back about an hour later.

I also couldn't find the autopilot beta button on my car, delivered on Sunday (and it said the software is up to date). I got through the autopilot calibration process, but still couldn't find the button. Similarly, I didn't see SiriusXM. The SA who did the delivery said it wasn't available, but who knows--I have the app on my phone, and just did it through bluetooth, and it was pretty seamless, particularly with the phone on the wireless charger, the display on it is really easy to read. Would love to know if you find either...

Thanks for the shout out. Please do share photos. That eye candy, in addition to the mutual support empathy and mindless banter, is what keeps us going! And good luck for a smooth delivery, @MFrunkerOG !!
