Maybe the fact that i'm in New York expedites the process. It's not like I was pressuring the sales rep for a delivery date. He gave me that estimate based on prior orders.
FWIW My dealer is Roslyn Porsche

 

If your BMW was an X5 or X6, they are built in South Carolina and that is much faster. Also, the X3's are being built there as well, as of this fall, and Z4 production switches to Europe.

 

I ordered a 2011 Cayenne in August for a November 17th build date. Dealer says it will be at the dealership by Dec. 15th. But I do live in Ottawa/Canada so maybe there is a difference in port delays?

 

They actually gave me that delivery time on an BMW 550.

 

Which dealership did you use?

 

I'm in New Hampshire, fairly close to the port in Rhode Island. My dealer is a Premier Dealer, so I doubt he's getting pushed back. There just seems to be a fair amount of delivery variability, probably multifactorial. Some of my dealer's other customers have had their cars delayed up to 2 months, so I should consider myself lucky.

 

george718 sounds like you and I both bought the car from the same dealer on the same day. Small world

 

WhoWho was your salesperson

 

Eric

 

Bingo. We just hit the trifecta. Eric sold 2 csyenne s ib 1 day. Lol. Was he also pressuring you to take what he had in stock

 

no I had a very specific build so we never got that far. let's hope we are on time because like the rest of us on this post I am dying to take delivery!

 

Let's keep eachother posted....maybe we can pick them up the same day...lol

 

Any updates on delivery times for the Northeast? Are they still backed up??

 

My CTT arrived in Davisville, RI 3 days ago, no word as to when it will be moving out.

 

Sorry to hear that. I'm hoping they use a different port for NYC dealers.
