Dang…..that is a long wait, indeed....I am supposed to get delivery on or around Dec 7th on a Burgundy and Beige Limited.....Is it only the combination of White and Beige that is delayed, or any Palisade with a Beige interior? Since I haven't heard from my dealer, I assume it might be a problem with the white exterior(?)…..I feel for you in getting another delay...hopefully it will be worth the wait..
I am also waiting on a White with Beige but have not yet heard from my dealer. As of two days ago everything was a “go”. But until it’s in my garage I’m not assuming anything.
I was interested in the white, but had a question about that exterior color....is there both a polar or creamy white as well as a hyper white available?....I thing the hyper with a beige interior would be attractive.....in the end, my dealer was allotted a burgundy/beige limited, and since I wanted delivery before Christmas, I settled for that one...
I think the Burgundy will be very attractive. I think the Blue with beige would also be a pretty combo. We are in the same boat as you except the only color we can get is white with the beige. It seemed like an interesting white up close but I’m not sure anyone can tell on the road. We hold onto our cars forever so I think white will be a good choice for us as it is ages well. We’ll just be happy if we even get the car at this point since Limiteds are living up to their name. Good luck everyone!
Can you ask your dealership if yours is delayed also?
I asked my dealer today, and he responded "as of now, the delivery is scheduled from Dec 5th through Dec 10th"......depending on how you parse the "as of now", I guess one could think there may be a more generic problem than only the whites, and that shoe will drop.....or it could be read in a straight forward way as being expected between those dates....I sense that Hyundai is not the best in the game at keeping their dealers informed...good luck with your wait....
Wow….someone got one early.....who knew?.....glad the burgundy/beige is beautiful...that's what I am getting, sight unseen, except for videos...
yeah...probably damage.....I was thinking about the delay from the time that the ship from Ulsan arrives in port until it shows up at the dealer....My burgundy/beige limited docked in California on schedule Nov 25th at 8:30 AM...the ship had other vehicles to deliver and left port at 2:30 PM....my car was on the manifesto, therefore it was on land by that time on the 25th....Delivery is scheduled at dealer on Dec 7th, plus of minus 3 days....the drive time for a vehicle hauler is about 1.5 days....what is happening the rest of that time? Any repairs/tire changes/etc. would logically be done by the receiving dealer...I don't think Hyundai would be prepared to do much at the port other than ship them on a truck....so what takes the approximately 10 days to get to the dealer?
That's actually the opposite: they do inspections and repairs at the port of entry. This is what happened to ours: they inspected and replaced tires that had flat spots caused by the long shipping duration. But they didn't have enough tires, so our car sat at the port of entry for a month before they got the tires in, swapped them and then finally sent the car to the dealer.
Thanks for clearing that up....I am surprised they have facilities near the port to do that....maybe it speaks to the percentage that do need some service after the boat ride....
I have seen pictures of Burgubdys with a uniform beige interior....and one video of a burgundy at a Reno dealership that had a two-toned beige interior, with a darker brown along the bolsers for the seats.....which one came with your vehicle? My invoice from the dealer says mine will be dark brown/beige....so I guess it will be like the one on the video from the Reno area....
Once the tires have flat spots, it's too late: the tires are deformed and need replaced. My port of entry was Philadelphia, and I believe the shipping time from Korea is 30 days, or so I was told.
I got my burgundy/beige sight-unseen last week. Not disappointed! It’s a very dark color, sometimes almost brown or “eggplant”. The color changes, depending on the color of the sky. I get lots of compliments on the color!
thanks....I had no idea that any maker had facilities like this.....
It seems a rather unique color....it often looks quite dark in the videos, but it's true beauty is revealed in a bright light....there is one video in a car show where there are a lot of lights being reflected, and that is pretty indeed...
