I ordered minne towards mind/end June and i am taking delivery on the 28th of September.

I am not in the USA though, in Lebanon.

EDIT: I wrote mid/end July, but actually it was mid/end June. Damn, I've been waiting long!

sls, e63
mine, for some inexplicable reason, sat at the port in germany for 3+ weeks. good news is that i have now had the car for several weeks and it is magnificent: power, quality, and to my prejudiced eye, very good looking. incidentally, motor authority tested the sl63, the m6 conv., and jag xkr-s and found the sl63 the clear winner and did NOT find any particular fault with the electric steering. your wait will be worth it.

I ordered my SL63 in mid-June. It's suppose to arrive in the US tomorrow and the dealer said it will take another 7 to 10 days to get to him. So 3+ months is my experience.

I ordered my SL550 in mid-May and it just arrived at the dealership last week. So 3.5 months.
