Grapes, it took 8 weeks for me to get ours. Ordered in mid-November, received her in mid-January.

It's weird that you all are waiting. The GM dealership in the town that I work in just got in 7 Malibu's all different colors. It was interesting to see the colors I have only seen on the computer! Hope you get them soon.

Ordered mine the beginning of June I think....or somewhere around there!

pwinskey - I am guessing this is the joy of being Canadian....I have seen NO 09's on any lots yet....Guess we get the second's! LOL

PizzaMan - Takes a bit longer since I ordered mine before June 16th (When they started building 09's) Figure if I had ordered closer to the begin of production it wouldn't be so long.

But like I have said in other posts because I wanted BlueTooth I had to wait....Only a couple more weeks now....They suspect about 1 to 2 weeks after this week and it should arrive.

Cheers!

I could only be so lucky!!!!! Suspect that coming across the border may take some more time.

- BIG UPDATE -

Ok (Grapes you may want to do this also) - Called my dealer and got my order number and VIN number.

Called GM Canada (1-800-263-3777) and gave them my order number and VIN Number and they called production and got an update.

Car was built yesterday and is on a truck on it's way to Windsor than from Windsor to the dealer!

Should have it in the maximum of 11 days....could be sooner!!

Now I just have to wait [still :O(]

Thanks for the info DOA, However we'll see if I can get that info from my sales rep, hasn't been the best at getting back to me.....

No problem....They should be able to atleast give you the order number and the VIN. Heck if the sales guy doesn't give it to you, talk to someone who will.

Well, I have just found out that my "targeted" build week is August 18th. If everything stays as is, it looks like I won't have my LTZ until the start of September :(. Good news is the finance rate for the 09s dropped from 2.75% up to 72 months to just 0.9%.

I was lucky I didn't have to order mine. I wanted a black Malibu wtih all options except the sunroof (cause I hate sunroofs). And I had talked to a salesman near me and he was able to find it. A black LTZ is hard to find around here from what I hear. But the dealership tells you that so you buy it (thinking it's rare). I'm no dummy, I knew that was the plan. But I liked it enough to get it.

LTZs were kinda rare until recently. A guy had to get the dealer to pull some strings at GM to get his LTZ built before LS/1LT/2LT models.

BuckyFan - Thanks for the words of encouragement ;) :D

No news yet folks....Although the dealer did say that the offical delivery date to them is August 12th....Like most I was hoping it may show up a few days early.

And yes.....I will be sure to take pics of her!

Cheers!!!!
