I just special ordered a GLE350, which is scheduled in production in the first week of October. Does anyone know how long it will take to be assembled, and delivered? I live in northern California. Thanks

It's built in a day (along with many others).

My GLE was at the dealership (in SoCal) for pickup 10 days after it was built in Vance, AL. It's probably about the same amount of time for you.

Wow, it's actually built in a day? Did you add parking assist and pilot distronic built in? I hope that I can get it in a month! Thanks!

I think when the factory is in production mode, they build tens of cars per day.

I had a fully-loaded 2016 GLE400 (my first custom order), with the Park Assist, Distronic Plus, etc., as well as AirMatic and Off-Road packages, and it was still built in a day.

As it gets closer to the build day, your dealer will be able to look up the information in real time and tell you the exact day it will be built, and when it's completed. For me, it arrived at the dealership 10 days after its build date.

Frankly - I would NOT expect 10 day delivery from build-date - speak to your dealer - please don't get wrong impression from someone else's delivery time - your dealer has much/much/much more experience across ALL their customers

I too have an Oct-1 build and was told 30-45 days to Seattle. I would confirm, 10 does not sound right.

I put my order in for a 2017 GLE350 in late June. I was told it was going to be delivered earlier this month. Then I was told this week. I'm still waiting. Don't hold your breath.
