Dealer quoted build time of 2-4 months??
I'm negotiating with dealers for a MY2025 build and I was told that they always tell customers the build time can be 2-4 months. The only item in my config (X5 xDrive40i) that I can see might delay build time is Tanzanite Blue II. I don't have any Individual options.
Is this the dealer just giving a conservative estimate, or are others hearing this as well? I'm trying to line up a timeline with PenFed for financing, and they only guarantee terms for 30 days. |

mine took two months from order to delivery (I’m in Virginia), but this was back in October 2020 before the pandemic really hit us. still, 4 months given the way parts are allocated now is conservative but possible.

All depends on allocation and when that allocation is scheduled for. You can complete the whole process in 3-4 weeks if the dealer is able to modify an existing build right before it goes to production but you can also wait months for dealer to get an allocation

Assuming I'm not changing anything when the order is put in, I was just surprised to see the timeline... unless they are factoring in parts availability issues. |

scottie31 Based on my experience and assuming your dealer has an allocation I'd say 8--12 weeks is realistic baring any supply chain or transportation issues.

The timing matters as to when you are ordering. Let's say you ordered next week after new allocations came out. If they had no old then it could be close to 8 weeks if the allocation you got was for the end of May.

Thank you all for your help with my questions. Armed with all the great information on these forums made negotiating very easy.
My only problem now is constantly checking to see when my status code moves from 112 (scheduled) to 150 (production begins). |

another data point - for you or for others just now ordering - mine looks to be 6-7 weeks from order to (estimated) delivery (pittsburgh). my dealer had two 111 slots ready to go. it an $87 build (so most of the options?) in tanzii/tartufo. ordered 4th april; genius told me week 20 production (13th-17th may) or ~6wks lead time order to production and ~a week to deliver.

Newbie here, I see a lot of people posting a week for their delivery. What does it equate to? Week 20 for example is the 20th week of the year??
