How long

[AngUPS]

I am on my 6th week of a 6-8 week wait. How long is it taking at this time? I have called the dealer (Coral Cadillac) and they say there is no information on the build date. Is this the same all around, or is there a way to find out when it will go onto production? I did not recieve any type of invoice or contract when I ordered it, is this normal? I can hardly wait until it is here!!!!

Thanks

Wow that was fast, thanks for your quick turn around time. All of the car dealers in south flordia seem to be very rude, i can only say that JM Lexus & Braman BMW are the only places i have ever enjoyed buying a car. I am a Gen Xer and will be contacting all local dealers through email, hopefully i get what i want with out trying to be pressured into anything. The car buying experiance sux, but i am sure it will pay off once i try to squeeze my new H2 into my gargae...

Based on a few posts on the same topic, I'd say not having an invoice is unusual. I received a full color printout with the Build Date indicated.

My H2 took a bit less than 2 weeks from the Build Date to delivery in California.

You can probably get a build date/status if you call back and ask. Is your particular vehicle assigned a unit # yet? If the unit appears on the dealers inbound list it will have a unit # [I think it is 9 digits, or maybe this was just the Hummer dealer I used].

Do you have an order number? If so, pass it on and I may be able to get the status of it for you.

The deposit when ordering H2 was $5,000 here.
Still no H2 on the lot.
Look like GM can do a little adjusment in vehicle distribution.
40 on the lot! if possible, please take a photo, would be fun to see that.

Mac, the dealer wanted more for a deposit (5K) than I was willing to put down, most of my money is tied up in my house and I was willing to wait and risk it since they not only had orange ones sitting on the lot, but more coming in. But now that my closing date is set back I may consider it this weekend. It would suck to show up with cash in hand only to find out that they're all gone and I'd have to put in an order and wait 2+ months.

Order date: 10/1
Build date: 11/11
Delivery: 12/2

Hey KAC, it looks like ours share the same birthday!

they told us we'd have to wait until mid December, but it looks like Santa's coming early.

It seems like, from the media GM site production #'s that they're starting to really crank them out.

Pewter lux, sunroof, air, wrap brushguard, etc.

No order #. I spoke to the dealer and asked about a build date, they said they were going to check into it on Monday. I was told it was a solid 90 days from the date GM accepts the order. I will hopefully get an answer soon. If anyone has more info please let me know.

Thanks

Pick up your Hummer as soon it gets there, you can always go back to have the parts installed later, as I did. I did not want my Hummer sit in the showroom or lot and have any stranger touch or breath on my Hummer.

There is an exact build date, dealer can track it on their computer. Coral case is odd, when you ordered it, did you pay deposit? they had to give you some paperwork. No money no talk.

My delivery was exactly 4 weeks from build date for me.

At the dealership where I'm buying they have mostly H1s and they are deeply discounting them in order to try and make room for more H2s. They have consistently about 6 H2s on the lot and about 40 or more H1s, new and used. I'm waiting to close on my house to buy my H2 and I found out today my closing date got set back a week, from this Monday the 2nd to the 9th. I'm so bummed! I was planning a road trip in my H2 next week! Currently there are three orange ones on the lot, two with lux/adv pkgs and one just with the adv pkg, which is the one I'd prefer, and I'm hoping at least one of them is still there in a week and a half. The orange one I test drove had been there two weeks. My sales guy said the yellow and pewter ones are selling the fastest off the lot which I thought was interesting, those are the two colors I like least. They only had orange and red ones on the lot and I saw on the delivery white board they're getting in some white, black, red, and another orange. I'm hoping the orange isn't too popular in this part of the country and that might be what's keeping them on the lot.

Out here (southern California) it was easy to get one and once my mind was made up, it took less than a week to get it....and I was very specific about what I wanted. No exceptions.

Its too bad you are having to wait so long. Out here, competion is stiff and I was able to get the $7,000 dealer markup tossed by going to multiple dealerships and letting them know some dealers were selling the H2 at STICKER.

Good Luck

Peyton,

I test drove the H2 at Wiliamson in Miami, I then went to Coral and gave the $1,500 down to order. They did order but gave me no paperwork other than a receipt. I was concerned after about 7 weeks and requested a build date, they were very evasive and I finally called the Hummer main office and had them call Coral to get an order #. When I finally was called that mine was in the air conditioner was not working properly, after two days of being promised it would be fixed I was able to pick it up. In my opinion they are very unresponsive to the needs of the customers and I plan to let the Hummer main office know. I am very happy with the H2 and love driving it around. The reason I did not buy from Williamson is that they said the wait for one with the moon roof might be around 5 to 6 months and they tried to talk me into an after market installer which I did not want. Good luck and let us know how the other dealers are treating you. I did pay MSRP at Coral.

I will have it this Monday, 11/25/02 [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Dealers usually preorder H2s, all get presold or sold within 24 hours anyway; they keep a list of potential buyers on hand, if any H2 come in unsold, dealer call down the list, or call the people they like first. Don't know if H2 is still hot and hard to get as 30-60 days ago. After I got my new H2, I received calls from other dealers I talked to when I was shopping around.
When I placed H2 (Lux pack) order, manager checked the computer & told me they have one black adventure pack H2 being built that exact date (8/28), not exactly what I wanted but I instantly switched to adventure black H2, cut the wait time, added leather and dealer option things I wanted. I took delivery exactly 4 weeks later(9/25).
Went back 4 weeks later to have the late arrival tube steps installed.

Isn't 11/11 a holiday? Veterans Day. UAW is that flexible nowadays?

It is all destiny. Whats yours will be yours, whats not yours, will not be yours no matter how hard you try.

My H2's Build date was November 11, 2002 and was delivered on November 21, 2002. This should give you an idea how will it take from the build date to delivery. The vehicle is actually built on 11/11 and was send to the shipping yard the same day. it took 3 days at the yard and off it went to the distribution center in los angeles from there the distrubution center has 72 hours to deliver to the dealership. your dealer should be able to give you your vehicles build date. If you have a good salesman like i had, I knew my VIN number the next day after my H2 was built. and gave tracking info where the vehicle was.
