How long does it take from ordering to delivery
Unfortunately, with the chip crisis, orders can take months. There is no “set in stone” lead time right now and orders will not be scheduled for production until Lincoln had all of the necessary parts/components on hand.How long does it take from ordering to delivery
How long does it take from ordering to delivery
The factory is in Louisville, KY. Shipping to California means it goes by truck to a railyard where it is sorted and prepared for loading onto a rail car. Then it ships by rail to another railyard where it is offloaded and sorted again for delivery to your dealership via truck. Three weeks is average timing for this process.I was surprised that even though mine started it’s journey from the Lexington facility on Nov 1, it didn’t get to the California dealership until Nov 24. Thanksgiving took on a whole new meaning
I placed my GT order on 12/1/21 and got an email a week later from Lincoln saying my car would be made on 2/28/22. Then yesterday I got another email from Lincoln saying my new manufacturing date has been moved up to 1/3/22. YEAH!!! We will see. I'm super excited but realize it all depends on a ton of factors. I will let you guys know when I get another notice. I feel like a kid in a candy store as I am retiring on 1/7 and maybe a week or so later my new GT arrives! OMG that would be a great way to start a new year!!! Love the looks of the Corsair and the GT option is sweet icing on the cake,.I placed an order on Dec 2nd and they said estimated delivery is mid Feb. Is this aligned with what you guys heard from your dealerships?
Not sure why I can not delete
I ordered my Corsair Reserve in October also. I have a production date of 1/11/22. It was pushed back once. I checked on my order yesterday & it says “in production.” My best guess is that I will get it in February.Unfortunately, with the chip crisis, orders can take months.

Once your vehicle is produced, it is then shipped (typically via rail) then ultimately delivered by truck to your dealer. So depending on your geographic location it is difficult to predict shipping time.
As an example, my order was placed 10/9 for a 2022 Corsair Grand Touring and there is still no production date scheduled. My guess is the car will be built sometime after the New Year (hopefully!)
Happy for you and happy to hear GT production is moving forward. My GT order was placed on Dec 2nd and I'm still waiting for the scheduled for production email... that's a bit frustrating as I'm using rental cars now - my previous car was totaled. Anyway, I knew patience is key in this situation.I just got notice it has shipped to the dealer. It was in production about a week. Last week I got notice it was in production. On Monday I ran the test to see if the control modules are programmed and it was not on Friday when the vehicle was produced but on Monday the chips reported programming and I could see all the data. Then this morning they released the car for shipping. Said to expect it by 1/21 but dealer said it would be here next week most likely from Kentucky (truck/convoy shipping). I'm in Virginia.
Great news! I just hope your GT doesn’t have the same charging issues PaddyH has had. Not a good way to begin your retirement for you pensioners.I just got notice it has shipped to the dealer.
