How Long Was Your SS on Order

How long did some of you guys wait for your SS's after you ordered them.
I ordered mine on MARCH 25Th 2008 and I'm still waiting (Biting my Nails)
My dealer told me six to twelve weeks....

5 1/2 weeks for me, ordered in late Jan. Sorry to say, but I believe some of those chassis vehicles were slowed down my the American Axle strike, they make more than just axles for GM. But, shouldn't be long now. Good luck!

I ordered in March 19th and took delivery April 22nd. My dealer said 4-5 weeks and he was very accurate. Hope yours gets here soon. These little vehicles are so awesome. Thought it is not the car to drive as the getaway vehicle in a bank robbery. Mine gets noticed all the time!

Around 3 months for mine to show up. That probably included around 3 weeks transit time (around 2 weeks to reach Honolulu, and 1 more to trans-ship to Hilo).

Hubby was lucky with his. We got on the Chevrolet web site and searched for one like he wanted and found one only an hour from our daughter who lives in Bolingbrook. So, we went for a visit, took a side trip and came home with his Victory Red SS. A local dealer had a red one too, but had the all black interior and he wanted the black/red since it REALLY looks great in the red car. So, from start to finish~about a week!

Bought mine off the lot. I did a query on Chevrolet site and found about 45 units in the SF Bay area... found a dealer willing to deal, had them do a locator on the actual car, they dealer traded, and I was out the door in a couple of days... 99% of the effort was done over the phone as I was still in CO, not yet relo'd to CA. I got here on a Thursday, picked up car on a Friday after about a 45 minute paperwork effort. No "F&I games," no attempts to add-on stuff I didn't want, etc. Sunnyvale Chevrolet. Steve is the GM.

The official order went in on March 25th. Then the srtike got in the way, then it was delayed a week. I'm supposed to have it on May 28th.

My SS took 4-1/2 weeks. Worth the wait.

Dealer actully found my husband's for him up in Michigan. It has most of the stuff we asked for on it except for the 6-disc changer I wanted. No big deal! 99% of the time we are listening to his MP3 player. It had a couple of things on it that my husband didn't want and that's the black smoke pinstripes and the roof rack. But after the dealership made the trade with the other dealer and got the HHR here, when we went to pick it up, it was better looking then what I thought it was going to be. Husband thought the samething after seeing it. It's Victory Red and I think the pinstripes and the roof rack break up the color, which I like better then it just being one big soild color. I did find the date "Mickey" was made, 3/08.
