Delivery Time

My car was shipped on 12/15/03 from Bremerhaven and arrived in the port of Baltimore on 12/27/03. My dealer is located in Farifield, Ct. and I haven't heard anying from them.

Would anyone know what a reasonable lead time would be for the car to be delivered to Fairfield, CT from the Baltimore port?

Thanks.

I'm picking up my e500 tomorrow. I believe it shipped on the same date as yours.
I would definitely call the dealer; they called me this past Monday morning to let me know it had arrived. I'll get to test out several of the cold weather features, as it's supposed to be snowing, and not get above -5 degrees during the day, and will likely go down to 25-30 below tomorrow night (great weather for getting a new car!). Best of luck getting some answers and your new car.

My dealer called this morning and told me my car will arrive tomorrow . The car had arrived in Baltimore on 12/27, but due to the holidays there was a backlog at the ports, which exlpains the delay.

But wouldn't you know it...the car is here and I have to travel the next 5 days and won't be able to pick up the car until Friday 1/23 . Oh well!

PS: The wood wheel I order has arrived and will be installed.

Re: Delivery Time

My dealer in Hartford told me right off the bat that I would get the car about a month after the build date. Sounds like you are right on track with that. BTW I just found out my 320 4-Matic was built this week. First time in my lfe that I can't wait for Febrary in New England!
