Do you know by chance if my build started 6-1. How long does the actual build take and roughly time frame I should expect the G to reach the US? Thanks.

Ask your dealer to be sure but it only takes a few days to build and depending on ships it can be to the US 4 weeks later, or as late as 8 weeks or so. Your dealer can get all of the info in seconds and tell you the ship name once it is assigned, and a VIN# now as well. But if you build date was June 1st before the plant closure add 1 month.

when was the plant closure? Thanks I’ll find out from my dealer. I have the VIN on the 1st when I reached out to them. I didn’t realize the build was so fast. I know shipping transit lines have been merged due to the slow down of our trade market and recession.

yea I was reading that thread which helped and glad when they opened. Mine got pushed back 2 times (original PO in February). Original build was end of March I think but go the updated build June 1-10. I got with the dealership on June 1 and they updated me with the VIN so I knew it was in production.

i thought you were saying they were shutting down again for holiday or something for a few weeks in June sometime.

mine essentially should be done with the build and getting ready to head this way.

It will be here before you know it! Just ask them for the ship name once it has been assigned and you can track it all the way here.
