Missing delivery??

[trez]

Well, the missing C8 finally arrived yesterday. The dealer traced the car to Edmonton and had it shipped via truck to Winnipeg. Going in for Expel wrap and ceramic polish next week. One great looking car, The red one in the background is my AMG GTS.

Nice cars.

I've been on the hunt for a good deal on a GT S or C or R. One of the most underrated cars out there. The steering feel at low and high speeds is something else. The car just feels like it pivots around itself.

Dealer was bewildered. Car went from BG to Toledo, then to Calgary, then to Edmonton and finally to Winnipeg. The why is still a mystery but since I have it now time to more on and simply enjoy it. BTW this car was a present for my wife and she is thrilled which is all that matters!!

Seems like GM wants to use trucks now. More reliable I assume. Anyway, nice that you finally got it!

And perhaps easier on the cars. My dealer had 3 C8s damaged on the train. Mine was trucked and no damage.

How can you tell is C8 was truck from Toledo to Calgary? I tought that every C8 going to Toledo where going on the train.

Agreed. That's what I meant. Get the job done properly and faster, it appears, though tracking seems unreliable

Many, if not all, US cars are now going by truck to the left coast

The AMG steering response is definitely designed for track use. When I switch vehicles, say from my F150, it takes a bit of getting used to. I find the C8 not as touchy and I think I prefer that. The C8 ride is quieter and smoother than the GTS which I think is due to the relative position of the seats.
