Hello guys, Finally my C300 made it to Baltimore, and released to truck yesterday, how much time does it generally take to come to dealer? Any experience with kansas City? Thanks

It shouldn't take more than a few weeks (I would say approx. 2-3) Btw...How long did it take for factory build time to VPC? Did your dealer call you and tell you that your car was being built.

I think they should not delay it so much, it should not take more than 3-4 days to deliver once out from VPC, dealer says 9 days...Too much of wait once everything is clear!
I used to text dealer every 4-5 days to get the updates and he updated me at all the steps!
Factory Build was May 12, was at port on May 14, waited for the ship then VPC arrival was June 8.

I don't know what the distance might be but when my C300 left the VPC at Port of Long Beach CA it arrived in Seattle (maybe 1100 miles) about 30 hours later. Those drivers don't mess around.

So, if I ordered my C class in April and the build is scheduled for late July, can I expect the car to be at the dealer by mid-August?

DrSRQ

Late July, expected delivery would be Late Aug or Early Sept.

That's only 2 1/2 weeks. How long do you think it takes the ship to cross the Atlantic? From South Africa, yet?

Yeah maybe late AUgust is a good indicator. Car is being built in Germany, not South Africa. I had dealer change it so I could get earlier build date
