Got a call at lunch from CarOrder today. My rep told me that they tried hard to find me a MY99, but couldn't find one. :) They placed a MY00 order to the manufacture today and the wait is 4 months. I'm pretty happy since I'm getting my 2.8 fully loaded at invoice!!!

Volcano Blk, Quattro, Bose, Sport pkg + seats, Opal Gray Leather.

I ordered the moonroof but since it only comes
with the convience package, I figure I got that at a discount also since the package cost more.

30K + 3k tax/misc. = 33k out the door

they can't find me a car either. Very little communication from them, only when initiated by me. I got my order in @ cost, so I'm kind of sheepish about making too much noise. I keep getting gifts in the mail from them.. a Tshirt, a toolkit, a stainless travel mug,.. Did you press them to order a MY2000, or was it their suggestion? Do I need to call them and rough them up a bit? Y2KA4QMS Silver/Blk (I hope someday!)

Call your rep and ask them about the possibility of ordering a 2000 model. If you just mention this to them, they will start contacting a dealership to order a 2000 model. Thats all I needed to do. I was in your same situation and my MY2000 is now ordered and scheduled for January delivery.
