How long is delivery?
« on: 31 August 2010, 21:45 »
Hi, my car was built last week on schedule and is awaiting shipping. Anyone know how long that takes? I obviously can not wait for it to arrive.

Mine took 4 weeks and a few days from the time its status changed to 'AWAITING SHIPMENT'  :lipsrsealed:

The dealer said it would be 2 - 3 weeks... but at that time there were a lot of hold ups.

It can sit upto 15 days at the port awaiting shipment like mine did. Then your dealer is suppose to ask for a priority shipment and then took the dealer even longer to tell me they had it for collection :grin:

I ordered last week in June, well suprised after reading the forums. More surprised it was given the week when I ordered it and stayed like that.

Mine was BW33, w/c 16th August. I'm picking it up on Monday so 2 weeks-ish for me. I had been waiting for 9 months since ordering though so dealer expedited it a bit from Germany.
