Congrats.
So how long it's going to take to be built and delivered ? I ordered mine in the middle of July - they said end of October/begining of November delivery.
Can they do it faster ?

Looks like a great configuration, congrats, and enjoy the wait. Most of us spent our time in the waiting room reading the on-line manual and feature videos.

It may come faster. My 2015 GL was built in the second week of July and it came the first week of August. Keep your fingers crossed.

Open Pore Brown Ash Trim
Premium 1
Appearance Pkg
Lighting Pkg
H/C sound
Parking Assist Pkg

CONGRATS! You got a pretty good deal with an early delivery date. Which state are you in?

I'm in Ohio. Dealer traded with another dealer for early build slot. Car could be here in early Oct.
