The automated ASKMINI says my car is In Production right now. When I talked to the human, he said it will be complete on April 1st. So technically that puts me in week 13 too. I was told by them some time ago that week 14 is April 3-7. They also told me to start calling every day now to get the "moment by moment" status, paint shop, assembly, etc. They said it will only take about 3 days total.
So as to the question, "can I be moved up a week?", I guess the answer is yes based on my situation. I'm not complaining of course

OK WTF So ive been calling ASKMINI every couple of days and have been talking with the guys there. I was told production would start week 15, then week 14, and then they told me there was no way to know yet! So i called yesterday and asked and they said it was definitely week 14 again! I call back today and the guy said there was no way to know and when I said I had already been given estimates for week 14 and 15 numerous time he goes "AHH I guess it just got loaded into the system, its definitely week 15!" Are these people just pulling numbers out of their *** or what!?!? Sorry just had to vent!

Flankmank and boarder054, so sorry to hear the troubles you're having with ASKMINI. That's weird. I guess if I really pressed them, they'd have had be jostling back and forth between week 13 and 14. Since my car is in production right now it would be week 13, but I've been told all along that my build week was 14.
I'll be sending out MINI vibes to you both that you're both in week 14 and the time flies by

Hello All,
Just found out my MINI will be scheduled for completion 4/6. Does that make me week 14 as well? Order placed 3/11. It's strange but it's always been "scheduled for production with no date" on ASK-MINI or the owners lounge up until today when it says it's scheduled for completion in roughly a week. Anyway no complaints...i can't wait!

Update: Called ASK-MINI they told me production will be completed April 3rd (one day ahead of the April 4th date I've been quoted all week). Since several individuals in a new thread around here have stated that they've been waiting at the port for upwards of 10 days, I'm worried there will be a bottleneck situation goin' on. Grr...just have to wait and see!
Oh, I almost forgot...I took the liberty of stopping by LB MINI tonight (on the way home) to take a look at an "almost" twin of my RG/RG MCS...its a wee bit more expensive than mine, but cosmetically its similar. Checking out that car for about five minutes has appeased me, for now.

I'm hoping I'm week 14 (next week)...
