I'd venture that 4-5 months is unrealistic. Your sales person should be setting expectations.

This scares me a little. The sales guy suggested September but the more I read the less this seems likely. Anything beyond September and I will rethink my position.

Thanks for the comment.

I placed my order on July 12th 2016. At the time of order, the foreseen production and delivery leadtime was a rather reasonable 16w.
It actually took 9m, it arrived on March 22nd. Exclusive color partly to blame, but still ...

My order was placed at the end of July, 16 and arrived just over 4 months later, but is a standard option colour.

Stuie, could you switch to a standard colour (I made several changes to my order in the first couple of months/after it got an order number) and then have it wrapped in your "exclusive" colour or a matt even (perhaps you were intending to have a protective clear wrap anyway)? Might that speed things up significantly for you?

I placed my order just two weeks ago for a PE in Daytona and have received a message today confirming that build will commence late July, seems very quick to me given that the dealer reckoned 16 weeks with a build date likely to be September.
