Your guess is as good as mine. It looks like the boat still went to Baltimore, but who knows...

Now that I think about it, just because it cleared customs in NJ doesn't mean it wasn't delivered to Baltimore. I seem to recall several people here in the past perplexed by the same thing, in particular cars that cleared US Customs in one port, but were actually delivered to another east coast port. I think today's SOP is for Customs to clear a shipment in the first US port of call.

Looks like you were right, it was just listed as discharged in Baltimore. I assume now the only way to track the vehicle is to bug the dealership for updates? Who knows how long it will sit in the yard.

Probably until they publish pricing.

Have you heard whether you car has been released from VPC. My CA is out of the office today and I was wondering if our cars are on the truck yet.

I talked to Jaguar North America on Wednesday, they said my car arrived in the yard on Tuesday. Then a week to get options installed/updates/emissions and an addition week to get shipped to my dealer. So the March 20th estimate is looking relatively accurate.

I'd be surprised that it takes a whole week for delivery, but I guess we'll see soon enough.

Dealer just come through with pricing. V8R Coupe base price is $104,535 including destination. 5 year 60,000 full warranty including scheduled maintenance. A lot better than I was expecting!

That is excellent news on all fronts, particularly the warranty. Obviously, JLR is getting more aggressive, which they need to.

With all the options I might be under $106k, which is lower than anticipated. Way I figure is they added all wheel drive and threw everything else for free.

Is that five years of scheduled maintenance or just the first one (as before)?

Why on the warranty? All three of my Jags had 5 years, 60k miles and service included.

I'm totally unfamiliar with all Jaguars between the E- and F-Types and never considered one previously other than a vintage E-Type. All I know is this is not the case with '14-'15 F-Types. If it used to be SOP for other Jaguars, then it ticks me off that they dropped it in that little window when I purchased the F-Type.

Agreed! I just leased my '15 two weeks ago and have a 4year/50k mile warranty, and no mention was made of included service. I'm assuming the first one is free based on comments here in the forum. Great news for soon to be '16 owners however.

Can you ask them for pricing on other models as well? I see no mention of MY2016 pricing anywhere else.
