Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Orders

Q: Can I apply my trade-in toward a custom factory order? A: Yes. We can assess your current vehicle’s trade value when you place your initial order, or we can finalize the valuation when your new vehicle arrives at our dealership.

Q: How long does a custom factory build take? A: Lead times vary depending on the specific model, trim, and factory production schedules. Generally, builds arrive within 6 to 12 weeks from order confirmation. Your product specialist can give you an estimated timeframe when placing your order.

Q: Does custom ordering cost more than buying off the lot? A: Custom ordering does not carry extra custom-build dealer fees. You negotiate the price and apply qualifying manufacturer rebates or incentives much like you would for an in-stock model.
