Two stories from Bowling Green, Ky appeared on August 27, 2003 indicating that the Neiman Marcus edition of the XLR is finally rolling out of the manufacturing plant. The stories are at:

In summary, these cars will reach the associated dealerships by the third week in September. Three XLRs are rolling out per day.

One piece of foreshadowing is this quote from the head of U.A.W. Local 2164, Mr. Eldon Renaud, who said of current GM/UAW contract negotiations,

“I think it’s going to be imperative that there’s an agreement before the cars begin to be shipped out.”

The light at the end of the tunnel... almost a year since we called and were among the lucky 99 to be able to put a deposit down and eventually purchase a NM edition XLR.

Now, can anyone give me various scenarios regarding the possible strike and how it would affect delivery?
