Week 21!!

rouxeny · 04-13-2017, 09:13 PM

Anybody else? I'm hoping the car will arrive in late June.

Kid Eh · 04-13-2017, 09:16 PM

I'm week 20 and hoping the same. Good luck!!!

Tumbleweeds78 · 04-13-2017, 10:10 PM

Yep, also week 21. Hopefully it arrives in time for some good summer driving.

rouxeny · 04-15-2017, 04:27 AM

I ordered LBB, 6MT, exec, CarPlay, and added SS pedals.

Thought about black trim pieces, but decided I like the chrome. Nothing wrong with a little bling.

MPE sounds interesting, but I think it will be too loud for the neighbors.

Congrats rouxeny! While I may drive my car before you, you'll have it in the 808 before me!

Haha, I guess so. But you will have driven it throughout Europe, and I will have only driven it around and around the Valley Isle.

Just got word that my car is scheduled for production next week. So it appears to be a week ahead of schedule, like many others have reported.

rouxeny · 05-09-2017, 10:45 AM

I'll have to check to see if I moved up also!

rouxeny · 05-10-2017, 07:32 AM

Called to check, didn't move up, it I have a VIN.

Week 21 WTF! 800 number says production should finish on May 24.

I was so close to buying a lightly used version of the exact same car I ordered, test drove it and everything, but someone else bought it before I made up my mind, so now I'm stuck driving rental cars until the M2 arrives.

Not bad considering week 21 starts 5/21. Sounds like your car is ahead of schedule too.

As far as I can tell, the production week number is the week that your car should finish production, which would make sense if production finishes
on 5/24. However, when I placed the order and I asked my dealer what the production date was, he said the 2nd week of May (i.e. this week)...

...so either the production week is the week that it starts, not ends (i.e. I'm week 19 and not 21), or my car was delayed 2 weeks, or the production date and production week are not the same?

You are correct. If your allocation was for week 19, it should've probably finished production this past week.

Called the 800 number yesterday (like I do everyday) and the estimated production ETA went from May 24 to May 26

Oops, I meant May :|

Mine still says May 24. Are you sure you were scheduled for week 19?

As far as I can tell. If production does finish on May 26, that means my car will have been in production for a full 2 weeks. I recall that the plant in which the M2s are produced rolls along a bit slower (i.e. closer to 2 weeks than 1 week of production time), so May 26 still seems normal.

800 lady: "Your vehicle is being transported to the port of exit"

I know the 800 line doesn't always have the latest info, but going from 155 to 190 in just a day or so is fast!

rouxeny · 05-27-2017, 12:49 AM

Well, week 21 is over!
