order fit from factory? If so, how long?

Apparently, a manual sport fit in blue sensation is a rarity around these parts. All my local dealers didn't have one in stock. So I ordered one back in April from the stealership that gave me the best deal.

It has been well over a month now and I still haven't heard anything. The salesperson figured it would take about a month.

I was just wondering if any others on here have ordered a fit from the factory for one reason or another. If so, how long did it take for it to arrive?

I will probably end up calling in a few days but I just wanted to see if I was being impatient or not, haha.

Thanks everyone.

a month is a VERY conservative estimate.... especially if they do not have a VIN....

So much longer? Hmmm ok. I figured it would take longer anyways.

We ordered a sport navi m/t in October. It was built the day after US Thanksgiving in November, and we took delivery in western Illinois in mid-January.

There were no sport navi m/ts in the mid-west. All the cars on dealer web sites were bogus so we bit the bullet and ordered.

Heck--a fast ship takes two weeks to cross the ocean from Japan, and then they unload and ship across the US.

Lots of posts on this subject from last fall into winter.
I bet demand is down now. Maybe it won't take so long these days, but we thought it was worth the wait. It appeared at the time that they built all the sport m/t navis in one run over several days.

Cheers.
