Question How long did you wait from down payment to delivery?

This one is for everyone who already has their Fit. How long did you wait between ordering and picking up?

(I'm not sure if they've been taking orders for 12 weeks yet, but I included it just in case...or for people who might want to answer this later on).

It's nice to see that actually quite a few people receive theirs pretty quickly. Too bad it's not working that way for everyone! The "not knowing" stinks. Wishing smooth sailling for those ships from Japan!

It was I think exactly 10 days with my second dealership, but over all I was itching for 5 weeks to get mine.

I got lucky, saw one in a dealership Apr. 22, had to have one so I searched and got mine Apr. 28. Didn't order, just got lucky fighting everybody else to be first in line. While the deal was being signed there were 4 other people wanting it.

it would have been 4 weeks, but my first Fit arrived damaged in transit, so I had to wait another 4 weeks for a new one---which I am picking up today

I could have had one in 3 weeks from another dealer, but he wouldn't meet my sales quote from my dealer (he wanted $400 more), plus he was sleazy.

It was 3 weeks for me. Didn't have to put a deposit down to hold the car during that time.

EDIT: paid MSRP also.
