R56 Production Week 45 Support Group
Well guys I will start the week 45. I just called and I was told my car is week 45. I ordered 10/19 so I'm just as sad as the week 44 bunch.
So my car is just a drawing on a computer system somewhere.
Hey, at least I know where it stands. Heck, whats a month.
I sold my BMW to Carmax, so I will do without a car for 2 months and have fun driving my raised Jeep Wrangler.

Hi Folks, I'm in Week 45 as well, having placed the order on Oct. 16. The Owner's Lounge says "on order" but my MA said Nov. 5 for a production start. Here's the order:
'07 PW/PW MCS
Cold wx package
Premium package
Sport package w/ web spokes
White turn sigs
Rear fogs
LSD
Armrest
Anthracite headliner
Alarm system
Sound system upgrade
Brushed alloy interior
JCW tuning kit
JCW suspension
JCW aero kit
JCW strut brace
Driving lights
I-Pod integration
Painted arches/moldings w/Armor Glove
Dealer freebies: carpets, mirror caps (all 3)
Dealer is MINI of Fairfield ... MA is Mark Smith. He's been absolutely awesome. NAM has been an invaluable resource, absolutely invaluable.
Should be a real sweetie of a car. I hope that she gets here before we have to put away our '75 Triumph TR6 for the winter. We took the Triumph (Luna) out on a local MINI run last weekend .. 20+ MINIs and the TR6 taking up the rear. What a blast!

Actually, it's about $4k less than that before the Governor takes her share. We wanted the Works works, and I've been saving all of my side-job income for over a year now for her ... finally, it's time. Now I just have to wait a bit longer....
Another thing about the price ... in contrast to what some dealers will tell you ("MINI dealers don't compete, the prices are all about the same") ... it's not true. At all. We hit dealers in CT, NJ, NY, and MA until we found the best package price combined with the best MA.

What does the OL status say? I just checked mine and it says "on order". I called ASKMINI and they said it was "being scheduled for production" but couldn't tell me when the production would start. When I asked a possible time frame he said some time in the next two weeks!!
