I missed the first few days because my car was shipped during the time the tracking thread was shut down- but once I got my info I started calling. Here's the breakdown:

Available to ship - 7/31/09

Shipped - 8/05/09

I missed these first few days- Then I picked it up in Ill. on CSX:

CSX

ETTX904049 - arrived Champaign Ill. 8/08/09 9:56 a.m.

ETTX904049 - departed Champaign Ill. 8/09/09 12:32 p.m.

ETTX904049 - delivered in Interchange to Salem, Ill. 8/09/09 3:17 p.m.

Interchange is where cars are hooked to a different locomotive, or switched to a different carrier. Union Pacific serves Texas so thats who got it next:

Union Pacific

ETTX904049 - Interchange accepted 8/09 3:17 p.m. estimated time of delivery to Industry 8/16 1:29 p.m.

I didn't check for a few days because I was busy, and didn't think UP gave locations. Then I checked again:

ETTX904049 - departed Tyler Tx. 8/12/09 2:28 p.m. estimated time of delivery to Industry 8/16 1:29 p.m.

ETTX904049 - departed Bryan Junction 8/12/09 8:59 p.m. estimated time of delivery to Industry 8/16 1:29 p.m.

ETTX904049 - placed in Industry 8/13/09 7:34 a.m. status: hold for unload

Industry is the final destination. I guess they don't say where Industry is so you don't go try to find your package. Anyway, I'll update when its unloaded and delivered.

Total days to ship from Canada to Houston, Tx - 9 days!!!! Not sure how long it takes to unload, time will tell.

Where do you get your ETTX number from? The dealer?

Put in your VIN # and when it's been shipped it will show up there.

Sorry - I forgot to update this thread. My car was delivered 8/19 - so, from the time it was unloaded until the time it got to the dealer was 6 days. My dealer is 50 miles south of Houston, in Angleton.

As stated, I got all my info from www.camarotracking.com , check the threads on the tracking section above!
