The initial delays are water under the bridge, this specific delay make me not able to attend the performance center - a primary reason for buying a new car - and also breaks a contract they signed saying my car would be ready on this day. It doesn't help that this all came out the day after I signed on my car as they pushed me to do that 3 weeks in advance of picking it up.

First time buying a new car, yes.
