Does anyone know how long it takes from Halifax to T.O.? GLK was off the ship on the 15th of July, and been 11 days and no sign. Emailed the Sales Manager and he says they can't control when it gets to them. It is simply to long in my books, 7 days across the atlantic, and its been 11 days and the car is still not in T.O.

My GLK was loaded on the ship on Mar 5 and discharged at Halifax on Mar 18. It was ready for pickup on Apr 6 (18 days) after I called the dealer a few times. Don't know why it took so loooong.

Hey, i know eh its really pissing me off. Max the sales manager goes, I don't have any control on when they get delivered, just waiting for delivery date and will let him know if you had ordered it on the 1st of 2nd batch of June instead of 3rd I would have had my car. It's annoying since I have a rental which I have to pay for since I ordered 6 months ago. Complete BS, my infiniti and acura sales where far better in experience.

For my GLK in Ottawa,
Mine was arrived at Halifax on Jun 17 and I got it in my hand on July 6th.
It took almost 3 week.

At that time, dealer didn't say any delivery date for me...Just said like "ready to be in 3~4 weeks"

Give the dealer a call at the end of next week if you haven't heard from them, your GLK should be ready by then. Cause no one called me when my GLK arrived at the dealership. When I called, they want me to pick it up ASAP.
