Doesn't the label on the driver side pillar tell when the car was manufactured? You should be able to estimate when it got to the dealer based on that.

May service department invoices always show the delivery date. The service department must get it from the VIN.

So the delivery date shown is actually when the car was manufactured, add another 4+ weeks for shipping.

Too many to count
Look in the glove compartment, sometimes they put the window sticker in there after the sale and it will say what port and approximately when it came in (usually).
