Default From VIN to delivery - how long

For those who followed their ordered 997 from VIN assignment to delivery, how long did it take (and indicate East vs. West Coast). There are plenty of threads on this, but have not seen a poll. Factory pickup doesn't count.

Got VIN 10/22, Got car 12/9. Car was at dealer about a week before I could take it home (partly waiting for C.O. partly because of huge storm).

Moogle, thanks for site; but timeline only shows stages, not the duration from Checkpoint 8 to pickup by owner.

Six months.

Give up, take valium, read all the message boards. But do NOT think about your inbound Porsche.
