You never know. Some ship very quickly, others are held for awhile. Once they pass QC, they are released, and then it is all up to Jack Cooper Transport, and where you're car is being delivered. If you ordered from a small dealer, there could be a number of stops at other dealers once your car is on the road.

Since you are on the east coast, it shouldn't be long once released for transport.

I think Cooper notifies your dealer when your car is enroute.

My dealer activated OnStar. I tracked it once it left BG. Car made it to the west coast in 10 days which includes 3 days it sat on a broke down truck!

Reaching the dealer has differed from less than a week up to 3 weeks.

Cooper never notified Macmulkin when my car shipped (or if they did, my sales guy didn't know). He was surprised to see the car show up and wasn't expecting it until the following week. Once it's in the lot waiting to be picked up (status 4B00), BG is no longer involved. Cooper is going to wait to fill a truck, so if you bought from a large dealer, it will likely move before a small dealer that doesn't fill a truck.
The best solution is if your dealer will activate OnStar for you. Macmulkin would not for me (but has for a lot of other people). They blamed idiots that started the cars and set off alarms remotely and said they were asked by Chevy not to activate it any longer.

Mine was placed in the Cooper lot on a Monday, it was picked up on Thu afternoon and arrived at MM on Friday.

No telling, just depends. Mine showed up 5 days after build date. Some are several weeks. Depends on where it's going and how many others are going that direction among other factors.
