Default Typical Custom Order Wait Time???

For those of you who custom ordered their S4, how long did it take to arrive at the dealer? Just ordered mine this past Saturday.

about 9 weeks for me. I ordered it on the last day of the dealer allocation day, so that helped.

Ordered 6/29 delivered 9/17. So about 11 weeks. I'm close to delivery port too, so may take longer if it needs to be trucked anywhere. 3 months is typical for a standard order...if you got any special paint that may delay you.

I've heard 10 - 14 weeks. Maybe less if dealer can pluck an unsold car out of the order system and make the necessary option changes.

Real answer: 8-12 weeks, sometimes longer depending on what you order, what time of year it is, and where you live. Also if the dealer doesn't have an allotment, it could take longer. IT depends on all these factors. Mine took 9 weeks.

3 months. Ordered on 7/30 and picked it up at the dealer on 10/31. It takes a week or so longer to get to SoCal since it has to take the train across the country from an East Coast port.
