    My C2S was manufactured about Sep 6, 2005. I took delivery, in Los Angeles, on October 8, though it arrived at dealer for prep three days earlier.

    Re: Wait Time from Manufacture Date to Delivery

    I can tell you that right now there is a bit of an extra delay with deliveries. With the factory shut down they have less cars to ship and aren't 'geared up' to do it as well. Also, some cars destined for the West coast wound up delivered to the East coast and are now enroute via rail and or truck. Could have been yours. Mine arrived today in San Diego,--and just waiting to see when it will be delivered up here in SB.

    I returned it to the factory after a Euro Delivery on 3 July and it didn't SHIP out of Bremerhauven until 31 July.

    My 997S was built on July 12 and I took delivery on August 16 in SoCal. That is a total of 35 days.

    Re: Wait Time from Manufacture Date to Delivery

    Thanks for the input...I had heard that due to the factory shut down and the annual inventory count...all recent cars were sent to the east coast and are slowly making their way west. Barrier is waiting on several cars. Mine should be a more normal cycle since its a Sept. build. Based on your responses...I may have it some time in Oct...

    I've heard a signifiant range in delays. The cars delivered in 35 from Checkpoint 8 are rare, indeed. When I returned my car to the factory they cited an 8-10 week transit time. Plan on the worst case, and then maybe be surprised!
