What a difference a day makes! I'm now in production, estimated completion date of January 16th 2008!!! That's before any date posted by anybody on this forum (that lives in the States). it also means that Mine should be on the production line starting tomorrow!! Woooooooooooohhhhoooooooooooooo!

izzodesh.. your prod completion date is now Jan 17th (sorry.. I couldn't help myself - automated system and all :biggrin.

No worry Larry! I had a crazy day today...was in Nj then Nyc then ct and heading back now ...so I never got a chance to check the status! I appreciate it!


We should have a thread of all the expected build dates once they are final.

Larry are those dates final?


Thanks again!

I didn't speak to anybody. Just used the automated system by saying 'Vehicle Production Status'. It asked for the production number, and tells you the completion date.

Sounds like a nutty day. I'll be in NYC Mon-Wed at Cornell School of Medicine, then at Yale University in New Haven,CT on Thurs-Fri next week. Sounds like we have similar work travel.

Yes, they'll respect it. The dealership puts the front plate holder on. The car is delivered with it in the trunk to the dealer.

Hey, since someone mentioned the miles on it when you get it, what can I do to ensure it has none?

I didn't put it in any purchase contract, but I worry I won't be able to pick it up right away and the manager may want his/her salespeople to get a feel for it.

You do know why you couldn't obtain any info about your production status until tonight, right? Cause I told my connections at BMW to withhold your info until tonight for making comments about the BMW ship that sank a few years ago.:biggrin:

Congrats Larry.

As long as we aren't on the Wallenius Tricolor II, I'm okay. :wink:

It looks like 1Addicts has good representation on the first date of US production!!! Way to go! Now we can all be miserable together, if they delay delivery until 3/22 for us. It generally takes 5-6 weeks for east coast cars to get to your dealer, once on the boat.

My automated system response is "Estimated completion date is January 16th". I believe it take 3-5 days to build the car, so some of our cars are "hatching" today.
