Build Time
...so I ordered a new GLE300d on 2/7. They are telling me that the car will not arrive at the dealer until the end of April or beginning of May. This sounds a bit long to me since they are built right here in Alabama. Does anyone have any information about normal build-delivery time for these? ![Confused](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
Thanx...

It's possible that your dealer could already have all their allocation orders in for March so you may have an April allocation. Build will probably take a few weeks. I purchased at the beginning of February and have been patiently waiting for delivery in mid-May. I only think about it every single day and it's driving me up the wall.
Side question - Are all GLEs built in Alabama?

I ordered the last week of Jan. and just recieved word it will be here Monday or Tuesday. Mine was a car that was already allocated to the dealer and they just built it the way I wanted.

Actually - ALL GLS's that have been built so far - at this moment - both gas and diesel - are being held at factory VPC pending Federal approval and official Mercedes release....

Im in same boat. I CAN NOT WAIT ANYMORE!
My dealer said MId April all along but it feels like forever. I placed build on Jan 15th. Build date April 10th. So I hope it is here by May.
