I know my Philly Lotus dealer e mailed me few weeks ago that my 44699 was made..
I asked if they would know when it shipped and was told only when it is on truck do they know.
That is hard for me to beleive ..
My Dealer is Lotus Philly also.

Well holy crap. My car is in North America. Now to just get it to Canada.
Mine is there too!!! Thank you, Nova - you are the GOAT!!!
Mine is there too! Thanks for keeping up on this @Nova!
I'm 4 behind you at 4072
Nova, Thanks for keeping up with the shipping manifests, was looking forward to this shipping update; but sadly no turbos.
Shipping ~70 cars every two weeks, it's going to take a while to cut through that parking lot of cars a forum member posted last month. My Turbo VIN is # 72, just over the 70 mark...lol

@EmiraFan….. yep, our cars were on the line just 4 away from each other. We will see if the late October arrival estimate is still correct. The wait gets harder as it gets closer for sure.

So sad...I'm 4613 and 4604 and 4627 are on this list. REALLY wish they'd start shipping the i4s across the pond.

Do we have anything on the CARB certification?

Someone else posted in another thread that the i4 already has CARB cert. I hope so, I don't want to wait another year for California to do their job.

I see where people post that their “dealer told them” but in this forum people have been able to post the EO when it comes. I haven’t seen the actual post yet. I’m just wondering if that’s the reason the i4 hasn’t been shipped yet. Of course we may see some in 2 weeks on the next ship.

My dealer saying early to mid November. This estimate began September, got told October, now November.
Not sure if its believable.

Mine is an i4, #4613, west coast (Idaho) delivery. I asked my dealer if he had any info and again said he'll need to talk with someone else at the dealership and get back to me. Just crickets from him.
At this point I am thinking it will be March 2025. The fact that they haven't started shipping i4s to the States yet, AND I am west coast, AND CARB cert is still TBD, I'm just tired of getting my hopes up so need to mentally push the date out beyond what is logically reasonable.
Hindsight I should have just bought a boat.
