Delivery times?

For those of you in the states, specifically east cost. How long did it take you to get your car once you placed the order?

My car is due for production first week in April. They told me it typically takes a week after that for transit. Seems kind of fast to me. I ordered in mid February so to get it in 2 months seems quick. We are anxiously waiting and I would rather assume it will be longer than to be let down come late April and still not have it.

Thoughts?

My order was late December and was targeted for a production date in Mid March.

The date then got pushed back to March 31st, but production actually started on March 25th. I got an email from my salesman yesterday stating that the build has already finished and it should ship soon.

I don't have an estimate on delivery date yet, but I'm expecting late this week or sometime the next.

My dealer just passed along my Netstar report as well--my car built on the 25th as well! Hoping to pick it up next week! SOOOOOO EXCITED.

A colleague of mine took delivery of a W205 he ordered back in January and it was 10 days from production start to vehicle delivery to the dealership.

Very cool...let's hope March 25th was a good day for the Alabama plant!

My salesman just emailed and said he expects my car to be in at the end of the week. Sold my other car a week and a half ago, so it will be nice to be back to being a two car family soon.

My 2015 C300 Sport was ordered 3/23/15, and I was told to expect an early June delivery. I also ordered the rear truck spoiler and illuminated star (1st gen), so I'm wondering if those two things will slow down delivery a bit as well since those options are usually installed at the dealership. My Clearbra will be installed at the dealership too...don't know what the exact brand will be.



All I can say is that in my anticipation for this vehicle, I've read every website review I can find for the C300 at least twice now, have downloaded multiple wallpapers of the C300 on my work and home computers, and even have worn out the pages already on my C300 brochure. June can't come fast enough damn it!

I think mine was also a 3/25 start. I wonder did you hear anything else?

Mine finished production on the 27th and it should be at the dealership on Thursday. They get direct truck shipments from Alabama. Any further north of here get shipped by train and takes a lot longer. They would know...they own dealerships in Maryland and PA.

The pages of that brochure aren't stuck together are they? Lol..... Just kidding. I had too, you left that one wide open!
I know what you mean though. I too am anxiously waiting.

I heard it takes about 3 days to build the car and about 12 days after production is done to get it.

3 days is about right. Mine started production on the 25th and completed on the 27th. How long it takes to get to your dealership all depends on where you are in the country and weather it is a direct truck shipment or sent via train to regional distribution centers.

Hello, I ordered my C300 with all options except Airmatic and Air Balance in mid-December. Production date was initially 3/2, but pushed to 3/19. Car came into the dealer Friday I believe, and I will be taking it home Tuesday. I'm on Long Island.

Alright! It ended up coming in early. Showed up on Wednesday and picked up last night. Just under 2 months from order.
Not sure if it ended up with the 485 or 486 suspension. I think it is the 486 sport though.
