3 Week Delivery Time On Ordered Enclave

5648 Views 22 Replies 13 Participants Last post by  axiama
Ordered an Enclave on 5/21/2007. Got a call from the dealer that it arrived on 6/13/2007... I haven't had a chance to go and pick it up but I was told to expect this vehicle in mid-July. Did they perhaps just give me a vehicle that had already been ordered by another dealer for their allocation? I am in Detroit so I'm not too far from the factory but 3 weeks seems awfully quick.

Please tell us the enclave model and options you orderd with your car...
:ditto:
Please!
Enclave CXL AWD
Exterior - Cocoa Metallic
Interior - Ebony Leather
7 passenger (captain chair's in 2nd row)
DVD Player (factory installed overhead, not in headrest)
Driver Confidence Package

That's it. We wanted the power inverter but weren't willing to pay for the entire package.
Power inverter!?! lol... What package was that with? Don't even remember reading about it!
The 110v power inverter (basically an AC power outlet) is part of the Luxury Package and not available otherwise. So if you want this option and get an Acadia, it costs $175 MSRP. If you want it on the Enclave, it's a ~$950 MSRP option with the Luxury Package Gotta love that GM marketing group!
I am going to buy one from Radio Shack for 25 bucks.
Could you please share the price paid at the link below, thanks.

You must be living right! My order is 56 days old and still not scheduled for production yet. Congratulations. Give us a report.
I haven't picked it up yet... still waiting for 30 days to pass since I became a Farm Bureau member. I don't want to walk away from a $455 savings ($500 off the vehicle less the $45 membership fee to Farm Bureau)... you have to a be a member for at least 30 days. I have about a week left. http://www.michiganfarmbureau.com/benefits/gm.php

My concern is that they would sell the vehicle to someone else. However, it was the dealership itself who mentioned the offer and told me not to expect the vehicle to mid-July. I immediately sent in my Farm Bureau application to make sure I'd have the 30 days covered by the time the vehicle arrived. By the way, it turns out Farm Bureau has decent insurance rates too.

Does anyone know if GM is offering lease loyalty for the Enclave? It's worth $1000 but wasn't in effect when I ordered, the saleperson was supposed to call me back and let me know but never did. It looks like the terms changed and it now includes 'select' 2008 models, whatever that means. Before it only say 2006/2007 models. http://www.gm.com/vc/lease07/index.jsp#tc

Klondike that is some really good information. I checked out our farm bureau and we get a dodge discount. im happy for you and good luck w/your purchase.
I'm going to call the dealer today (Tuesday) and see what they can do. The thing is if they are offering the lease loyalty, they'll waive two months of payments. I have 2 payments left... one coming due on the 29th. Plus I am 100 miles short of my alottment... so I may lose the Farm Bureau discount but I save a lease payment and mileage charges... probably the way to go.

Of course I had to figure this out, the salesman never got back to me. Can they sell a vehicle that I have a deposit on???
no they shouldnt be able too... you left them an earnest deposit.
My dealer is now quoting a 4 month delivery for new orders.
I would be surprised if a dealer minded having a sold vehicle in the showroom a week.

**** I would think he'd be glad to have to opportunity to have it for others to see.

Let us know how it works out for you.

Joann.....don't give up, we waited 12 weeks for our's and it has definitely been well worth the wait. We love our's.... I installed the window vent shades, mud guards, and cargo net on our's the other night. I'm planning on cleaning it up tomorrow and will take pics and post if I have time.

Joann,
Hang in there, it WILL be worth the wait :thumb: :thumb:
I ordered my CX cocoa, cashmere cloth, remote start, engine block heater and skylight Enclave ON APRIL 9th and am
STILL WAITING!!! On JULY 19 the code went to 3000!

Any ideas from anyone, how quick it goes from code 3000 to drive away?

April 9!! I ordered on 4/23 and I'm getting po'd more and more each passing day. Especially after reading about others that orderd much later and they are driving theirs. You must be going crazy as it becomes a quest just to get yours. Mine is still at code 1100. My dealer has no answers. I even e-mailed Buick a couple of days ago and have yet to get a reply. All the excitement of getting a new vehicle is gone for me.
