Sorry but It cannot be done...
No matter how hard you try, you cannot figure all the factors in to guess when your car may be here.... From how they put the orders throught the system. to quality glitches in inspection, to waiting for the car carrier or train car getting filled, how many stops it has to make along the way, etc .. every car will be different.
Buyer A's car gets imaged and sent through the system, well just so happens that everything falls into place and it goes through withoug a hitch, the car gets built without delay, and sent to inspection, passes with flying colors, goes out and is the last car to get on the car carrier and goes right out... as little as a couple weeks..
then Buyer B's car is Imaged, and as it goes through processing there is a delay in getting the monsoon sound system, only a couple days but it happened.... so it's build does not go through until that can be assigned to the car. then when it gets built there is a quality glitch with the car, it gets sent to a rework area for repairs.. that could take a couple weeks... then it is inspected again and goes to the carrier, and just so happens to be the first car going on the carrier, and it happens to be going to an area with small dealerships with little allocations... it may take a while to fill that carrier up... (waiting on that myself),
So really there are just too many factors to be able to figure a good average time for your car to come in, that is why they always give you the old 6 to 8 weeks timeframe... because nobody can accuately guess....
