My coupe's build date was supposed to have been 5/3. The approximate "give me the key" date is 6/20. Does anyone know why it takes roughly a month and a half to get a car from Germany to the U.S.? Obviously some time is required for shipping, customs, and prep. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks to all! 8)

The average is around 12 weeks. Your new BMW, Jaguar or Mercedes will usually take no longer to arrive than if you had ordered from a UK dealer.

It takes time to prep, go through customs (in several countries), unloading, checking, delivery to the dealer. I'm sure there's some kind of waiting list as well! :)

you are correct PWEB. Imagine what it must feel like to do euro delivery. Have your car a couple weeks then have it torn away for 3 weeks will being brought accross the pond. Its almost too much trama for me to take.
