Time to Delivery after Build Date

So my 2012 ML350 was built 11-16-11. When should I expect it in Portland, OR? I had asked for 12-20-11, is that realistic?

Mine was built 11-11-11. Arrived at my dealer this afternoon, one week later. I'm in the Midwest. I'm guessing Portland will take 4-5 days longer, but you should still easily get it within a couple of weeks of production.

Alas, I'm leaving town for a week and won't get to pick mine up until the week after Thanksgiving.

My build date is 12/12. MAYBE I'll get it before the end of the year. Maybe. :-)
