Default Build Date?

I just purchased my 2012 Grand Sport coupe. I was just curious if
anyone could tell me when it was built and delivered to the dealer
where it was purchased? I bought it off the lot and want to know how long the dealer had it. Thanks in advance for your help!

If you post the VIN, several here, including some vendors, can look it up in the GM VIS and tell you when it was built. I don't think they can tell you when it was delivered to the dealer.

However, the month and the year that it was built is on the placard on the driver's side door frame.

Be patient and wait for someone to run it for you. Holiday weekend, so it may take awhile, but there are lots of nice folks here that will do it.

Sometimes posting your VIN is sensitive so in the future anyone can go to chevy.com, they have live chat and that person will give you your build date if you give em your VIN
cheers,

Default Local dealership can provide all the info

Next time that you go to your local dealership for service, just ask the advisor for the GM Global history of the vehicle and they will provide you with the warranty, history, delivery date, codes, etc.
It is a print out.
Good luck
