For those that custom ordered how long did it take?
My lease on my current car is up in 4 months. For those who custom ordered their cars how long did it take?
Right now I'm considering the following:
A4 2.0T Quattro Premium Plus
Brilliant Black
Black Leather
Navigation
Bang and Olufsen
I'm trying to gauge how soon I should start talking to a dealer.

Ordered mine beginning of January and it came in mid-March. I think it might also depend on what your dealer has allocated... I got one of the only 6MT going to my dealer for the year. Definitely worth the wait to get exactly what I wanted and was very surprised to get a good discount on a special order car. BMW told me I'd have to pay MSRP on a special order but my Audi dealer gave me 1% over invoice. Very pleased with the whole experience.

Ordered mine April 25th 2009, ordered a 2010. It was built and in the states by first week July but sat at the port until model release July 17th.
I took delivery July 21st-first 2010 delivered by the dealer (possibly in NY state.)
My advice is order EXACTLY what you want--it is DEFINITELY worth the wait.

About 11 Weeks.
Ordered: 3/10/10
In port (Rhode Island): 5/21/10
At dealer: 6/1/10
Pick up: TOMORROW!
I wanted a manual. That factor alone almost required a custom order -- unless you wanted black on black and even then I would have had to compromise on certain things. I was initially amazed it was that difficult to get, but after reading up, I realized I was hardly alone.
It is worth the wait because while 10-12 weeks is really a long time when you're waiting, driving a car around for 4-10 years that you don't really love is even longer.

6MT
Premium Plus

It took exactly 99 days from order to receipt for my S4 custom order. They had the A4 S-Line sitting on the show room floor when I picked it up and I bought it for my wife about two weeks later. If I had ordered my wife's car the only option I would have added was the back up camera which I still cannot belive comes with the S4 Navi but not the A4 Navi. If you are going to spend $40-50K+ for a car I say get exactly what you want. Good luck!
