Its just a protective film on the car so I cant see that harming the paint. But what do I know? Thats why I ask a lot of questions here. LOL. I definitely would like to know the answer to your thought though. Would save me several thousands dollars if not put on.
Next truckload to Canada

Add another C8 to that car carrier. Just got off the phone with my salesman... Mine was built at the beginning of the shift on Monday. VIN# 6727. It is now 4B00 - Bayed. Order management says there are no holds on it.

Congrats, now if we only knew what 4B00 meant in relation to 4000 ready to ship.Add another C8 to that car carrier. Just got off the phone with my salesman... Mine was built at the beginning of the shift on Monday. VIN# 6727. It is now 4B00 - Bayed. Order management says there are no holds on it.
Poster on MEC claims JCT has 10 days from the time a car is declared at
event 4B00 to get it on a truck for shipment.
I hope he is correct.
There must be 8 or 9 of "we the north" at 4B00 or 4000 on this forum alone!!

I'm just back from hiking the Skyline Trail in Jasper over the long w/e and catching up on the "Forum news". Congrats to "Gilles27, safire and Rebby" on their delivery and for everyone else soon to receive their cars, I recommend a "glass half full" attitude when there are people like me still months away from delivery...so don't get too caught up on these last few days of delay when you'll soon be enjoying a great ride and long before others like me who expect to get a 2020 and much farther ahead of those now hoping for a 2021!
Congrats

You're absolutely right! I was just on the MEC forum post re: "What March Allocations have TPWs" and it is unreal.
Some March allocations with TPWs from late August to Late November and many who still do not have a TPW.
There was even a few Feb. allocations without TPWs!
So you are correct those of us who are waiting for shipping and those with soon to be built dates should consider
ourselves fortunate.
Moncton got 6 more today
Maybe you need to move further south from the Arctic Circle...
Mine missed this shipment but will likely make the next one. I hope it they don't wait ages to ship. Do you know how long those Moncton orders took from build date to arrival? Mine was built about a week ago and I was wondering about the rail transit times to Moncton.
Some of these 6 were built 6-7 weeks ago. They need a full rail car to Moncton before the next one will leave. Only vehicles in that car are: Camaro , Cadillac CT4,5,6 and C8. Do it takes awhile to fill then move.

Spoke with GM this afternoon regarding status of my C8.
Told me my car is awaiting shipment and that a shipping date has not
been scheduled and ETA at dealer is unknown!!
Anyone else with a built car received an update recently?

Gross. Do they sit at gm as bayed until then or do they truck them to Ontario and have them sit there at the rail yard?

They sit at the BG plant in a secure area they refer to as "bayed"
I feel your pain, I camped out at my dealer for two days to greet the car when the truck arrived. that was with the tracking on the Cooper site. Still worth the effort. Let me know if you keep the white car wrap. I kept mine but am now thinking of pitching it. Its bulky and the window tape gets bunched up. I kept the window sticker. I think that may be enough.
I lived in Kitchener/Waterloo for 10 years. I prefer the mountains out West so will just have to deal with the delay lol. Maybe a move South to Calgary is in order. Still won’t help my delivery time though.
You would be a day closer to delivery lol. I'd rather be out west myself...
