Question To get June delivery, when should I place order for 2017 car

Hi guys,
I became a JCNA member on Jan. 2017 because I want to take advantage of the membership rebate. For this reason, I need to take delivery of the car no earlier than June of 2017. Based on this, when should I place my order with the dealership. I don't know how long it takes for the car to arrive from the UK. Any advise is appreciated. Thanks .

There is more to it than just order time. It depends on your dealers allocations. If its a small dealer and he's already used his allocations (unlikely) you could order now and not take delivery until September...

A high volume dealer will have more allocations and usually can deliver a car to a customer quicker (everything else being equal)

Unless you're Stohlen, or your ship sinks on it's way here from the UK, or your car get's lost, or left at port for MONTHS...

Not just stohlen

It took almost 5 months for my car to get here. Granted, I ordered the car from a fairly small dealer and they did not modify an existing allocation for me....

That would ensure you get it before mid-June, but if it arrives mid-May, you jeopardize the JCNA incentive. Ordering it in March gets it to you in June or July.

EDIT: Rereading your first post, you can't take delivery until sometime in July if you want the incentive.

For example: January 5 + 6 months = July 5.
