I hope your 2 month estimate proves to be true

How long did your dealer tell you it would take?


It is also "dealer dependent" based on things like allocation allotments, etc.

If that is the answer the dealer gave you it is time to "fire" your dealer and find a new one.

Blessed to have a Dealer as good as mine, one should value people and not fire them . I got A+ service, a nice discount and lets hope his optimistic estimate proves true. One sales person mentioned, customer orders (put by dealership for a customer) is faster than dealer orders (they put for their inventory).

So how long did they say it would take for your ordered car to arrive?


I believe you said it would take 2-6 months. If you cannot pin a dealer down and they give you a range of 2-6 months that is a good reason to fire the dealer--period.

It took two months for my 2015. It only took about 20 days for the car to be built (dealer received a notice when complete) and the rest was taken up with shipping.
