Default Factory Order Wait Times.

Anyone Recently order or recently take delivery on a factory order? I just ordered mine last week, The dealer told me it could be anywhere from 6-12 weeks. The wait is killing me. They told me this time of year a lot of orders get put in and its hard to predict times. I was wondering from actual recent experiance how long people are waiting. Please post details like what you ordered, when you ordered and when you actually took delivery. Thanks for helping a fiendin’ man out.

One dealer told me 2 to 5 months.

The dealer I bought from had it in 5 weeks.

I placed my order on March 16 Car is scheduled to be at Dealership April 24

A lot will have to do with how important the dealer you buy from is and what the units moved is like. I know some places do not get the priority as others.

I placed an order for one that I didn't go with (I ended up getting one off another lot) on Jan 18th. Well, the dealer ordered the car for inventory anyways and they still haven't gotten it. (I went to that dealer for a part and asked the salesman to see the car because I specked it with the Charcoal dash applique instead of the Satin Aluminum and wanted to see how it looked.)

Yea Im in the same boat. I ordered the borla cat backs which should be delivered to my work either tommorow or tuesday. I try not to think about the wait and try to focus on other things, but everyone is always asking me about it and talking about it, lol, so its kind of hard to put in the back of my mind. Thanks for the info everyone.
