My dealer just updated my status to let me know that my car is at the Norfolk Southern rail yard in Atlanta. Next, an Allied Systems transport truck will pick it up. Wednesday delivery is looking good. Maybe earlier? Fingers and toes crossed.

I think the ST is a longer wait. Nice car.

At my age (70 ) it's time to slow down. My other car is a BMW which is for the times I don't want to slow down...

Thanks for the replays

Yes, I'd expect a Titanium to be built sooner.

I ordered an ST on October 29th. My salesman is telling me it will be here by December 24th. Here's a link to a timeline I posted.

Just got my Titanium last week and it's on version 3.0.2 according to the syncmyride system. I did the check my version app and it told me last night I have an update available (3.5.1). I'm curious to install it but would like to know how long it actually takes. According to them I need to run my car for a half hour while it's installing. Can I drive it during that time or does it need to be stationary? I can do it on my commute home if I can drive during it.

In it's current state I would say it's a bit buggy on the entertainment section. When I use bluetooth with IheartRadio it sometimes knows the songs name but most of the time says unknown. It seems in consistant. I've also had to program my clock twice now - not sure why. But then again - it is a microsoft product.

Will update soon and report back.

If you update to 3.51 and have navigation be prepared to find out that you will need a new navigation card. The old one will not work. Once I get a Saturday off I am going to get it installed at the dealership. Sucks that they don't mail them to you.

I don't have the nav so I'm all good. Although apperently now I can't enter my wifi password. I posted it on syncmyride community and it's apperently a known issue.

^^ sounds like that should be an easy fix, just remove wifi password until update is completed.

Good to hear the update took care of a bunch of issues. Look forward to picking up a Titanium in the next few months

I picked up my ST3 last week and can tell you that everything works very well. I've not experienced any issues with either the touch or voice recognition. The only challenge will be gaining enough experience to not have to say, "what can I say?".....

When I logged onto syncmyride.com it told me there was an update available and gives you a link to order the A4 navigation card. I put my info in and it said it should arrive within 2-3 business days. the site says the update should take anywhere from 30-60 minutes and to not turn the engine off during that time (it even says for the vehicles with the engine idle time out feature to disable it to prevent from having the vehicle turn the system off during the update). The dealer will also perform this update for you and provide the card if you schedule service with them.
