Still no info from the dealer or ask-mini on a production week or date. I'm starting to think that the convertibles do not get to production as soon as a coupe. I conformed that MINI has had my order since July 18th and it was a modification of a car that was already in the pipeline. MINI and the dealer still say I should get a status change sometime this week but nothing definite. As of right now I'm still on order, scheduled for production, no production date. I'm going to pester my MA again today after they open.

Topless Silver Bullet scheduled
Well, I haven't come up with 'er real name, but a recent call to AskMini said my little Silver MCSC will be completed Aug 8. So I think that puts me in with the Week 32 crew.
Like UUNetBill, mine's coming to Schomp Mini in Denver, so that means a west-coast ship -- they prob. go through the Panama Canal, eh?
Now I have to put the rest of the garage in-order to make room for the new one -- selling off my '94 full-size Blazer (that'll be fun, with gas heading toward $2.50 again) and dealing w/my MG Midget. But it'll all be worth it in the end :smile:.
Looking forward to drives up Boulder Canyon & the Peak-to-Peak...

Delayed Production?
Just got an update from my MA. He says that the only new he has is that my MINI is scheduled for production this week. However, he says:
"It looks as if they have delayed some of the production. I will know more in a week or two."
Does anyone know anything about this delay? or is this just a ploy to get me off their back.

Update
I guess I'm being pushed back for some reason. Two days ago my MA said I would be in production this week. Today I call ASK MINI and they said that I still have no production date but that it looks as if my car is scheduled for production during the week #33. That means my car will have been on order for 28+ days before going into production. I wonder what the difference is between my car and others who ordered at the same time but already have production dates and are in production? Maybe it is the options or something?

I believe they do them in batches by color. The HO's might've been pushed back because of a high demand for them, or some other color.
If they keep pushing you back like this, you might end up with an '06!
Also, I think most people have to wait more than a month from order to starting production. I did...
