So my dealer still hadn't sold his "allotment" when I ordered in June, so I'm getting my car November 2nd...
My impression is that in the U.S. build date is around 3-4 months from order from dealers that still have an allotment reserved with MMC. But if you order from a dealer who has already sold their allotment, you may have to wait longer - some have reported waiting a year early on, but I think that's a thing of the past.
