How long did your dealer tell you it would take?


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

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.
