My latest update from a very thorough ASK-MINI customer service rep....looks like my MC is set to hit the production line on 12/12 ( apparently NOT finish production that day as previously reported )
However, the best case scenario according to my new found friend at MINI is the MC should hit the paint shop by end of next week and hopefully be completed by 12/19....average ship time to US is 9-10 days according to my buddy, then its off the dock, inspection hopefully in Charleston as it is a not so long truck ride to Flow in Winston-Salem
So, it would seem absolute best case would be around Jan 5 or so for delivery, but I'll add a week anyway....just about what I was told up front

I've been busy with work. That's good. I'll have a car to pay for soon.
ASKMINI reps still tell me I'm good for 12/13 wrap. I'm planning around a mid January delivery, but based on Runningman's info, it sounds like it might be earlier.
I was bummed that they couldn't tell me where I was in the factory? They apparently started on it Friday, not today as I was previously told was the case. For some reason I thought either ASKMINI or the OL would give you steps within the factory.
If I counted correctly there are 3 PW cars in this week?

Looks like I'm in for week 50 as well!
Yesterday ASKMINI changed my status from "Scheduled for production... no date set" to "IN production, estimated completion date Dec. 15"! what a wonderful surprise as I was originally told by the dealer that it probably won't go into production until after the plant shuts down for 3 weeks in January. So I'll be getting my MINI much earlier than expected... maybe mid-January.

That's funny, elbum0, I've actually being reading your posts, because I ordered my MINI on Nov. 9th from Mountain View, got my production # the same day as you, and I'm still waiting for my status to change from On Order. I think ASK MINI and maybe then my MA are going to get calls today!
