The wait time varies per order it seems. My experience was 5 weeks to the day. I've read where others on this board have two to three months wait. I asked my dealer about this and he said that some dealers have base units available for build at the factory and all the dealer needs to do is spec out the build and the factory finishes building it. He said that was done on mine. I don't know if this is true or not, but I think I have one of the quickest turn arounds for ordering/recieving.
I got my 330Cic for $1000 under MSRP. The way I did this was I used www.autobytel.com and spec'd out a car and had one of their dealers in the next town quote me a price. I then took that quote to my local dealer. I did not feel bad because I had initially test driven the car at the local dealer, and figured I'd give him a shot at meeting/beating the price. He met it, and I ordered it that day. From what I've read this looks to be the average for discounts a couple of months ago. I hear now there is no dealing being done.
Below is a link to the E46fanatics FAQ.
Hope this helps.
