You guys are lucky you don't ilve close to the Ontario plant as I do...once I get a VIN I will likely be found staking out the assembly plant 24/7 watching for a car that looks like mine to be loaded on a truck, lol

Received VIN Monday May 2. Arrived at the dealer 74.5KM away (Yes, I Googled the distance) Monday, May 9. Delivery tomorrow Friday May 13.

Congratulations & good for you! Both the Mfg Plant & Dealership was in Canada I presume? Also why is there a 4 day delay after reaching the dealership?

Thanks, been quite a long wait but worth it! Weather is finally getting good in Ontario. Been a long winter that you Southerners don't know about

Honda of Canada Manufacturing is in Alliston, ON and the dealership is in the Toronto-area. More than 6 months to get the orange Si's since they build them in batches. I've seen a number of orange ones Canadian spec on Youtube in the last week.

The problem is you still have no idea what this driver's route is (or whatever means is transporting this car to your dealership).

It could be on a truck that is then going to a train (to LA) that will go to another train (to SF) and then get loaded on a truck to your dealer, who knows?

And if the train gets robbed somewhere west of Sante Fe by The New Dalton Gang and their crew of hatchback rustlers, well, whaddya gonna do?

To your last question: (call) Ghostbusters!

Sheesh. Totally missed the better response. "When Hulkamania goes wild on you!"

Congrats to all who are receiving their cars soon!

The Order Details sheet updates around 9-10am PST. Will give the dealer a call at 10:30am to check out. I feel like it may get pushed to tomorrow. Hoping for the best. Thanks for your good will buddy! Appreciate it!

What is an Order Details sheet? Is that something specific to your dealership? I have been waiting for a Civic to arrive as well (I'm in TX), original ETA 5.6-5.10, and has now been pushed back to 5.11-5.16. I have called the dealer yesterday, they said that the last record was the car loaded onto the train. I wonder if the Order Details sheet can act like a delivery tracking sheet or something like that?

Haven’t seen an update from you since before check-in time yesterday

Hope that’s because you’ve been busy breaking in your new Civic…!

LMAO! Coz I didn't get an update until today 1pm PST. The car has arrived at the Lot & will be completing all tests & cleaning process tmrw. Thanks for being enthusiastic & supportive of the car purchase process! Here's a sneak peek of him!!

Plan is togo to dealership an hour early, do all paper work, get the car, perform some small ritual for the car, then drive off straight to LA. Gonna be a long night. Hopefully we don't drive too much in dark 😅

This is the sheet I'm talking about. I called it wrongly. I think your car could come anytime soon. Just try to get frequenct updaytes from your dealer. For us, under the Shipping Sect, Loc changed from ON to NM then to CA. So you know where your car's at. Good Luck! Post a snap of your car when you get it. Happy Weekend!

Thanks, also congrats for getting your car! My car hasn't arrived yet. I planning to pick it up next Saturday, so I guess there is no more need to push them for an daily update.. Surely next week... LOL

We ended up collecting our car yesterday evening around 8pm. Will start drive to LA today at 8:30am.

My salesperson called me today and told me the ETA is now 5.27-5.31. It doesn't make sense.

What exactly makes no sense? Is it that you are waiting on a car that is in high demand while there’s a supply shortage?

I am sorry I didn't make it clear. That reply was following my previous replies in this post.

My car was already manufactured (VIN number existing), around 4/27. The car was already on its way to the dealership at least two weeks ago. The original ETA was 5.6-5.10, and then changed to 5.11-5.16, now 5.27-5.31. I have not seen anyone else here experiencing big delievery delays, and my dealership sales manager also said the ETA is fairly accurate. I understand that there are massive production delays due to supply chain issues, bla bla bla. But I'm not sure what can push back my delivery date by more than 20 days.

It happens. Quite unfortunate. My dealer handled another guy who ordered a Black Civic LX, ordered like a day before me, got VIN before mine, and got an ETA much earlier than mine. His was supposed to arrive at the Oakland Dealership by 30th May, but got pushed & pushed. Mine came earlier than his. So it's quite strange how this all works. But good luck to you
