*sigh*
nope, not me.
ordered early July
no production week for me yet.
*singing* "Have patience, have patience, don't be in such a hurry, when you get impatient, you only start to worry... remember, remember, that God is patient too, And think of all the times that others have to wait for you." (Old Sunday School song... just came to me)

Looks like a wait of 6 - 8 weeks from start of production - 6 for the east coast and 8 for the left coast. See this link for some background - http://motoringfile.com/2005/05/13/m...ine/#more-4175
My baby's name is Wishbone - has anybody named theirs yet?

Anyone had any luck with their production number working on the Mini site? Mine's showing up as not valid (or something close to that). I assume there's a delay between the email going out, and the database getting updated.
Who's already bought crap for their car? I've been eyeballing the "Turbocharged" emblems over at autobadges.com -- it's not too early, is it? I mean, I don't even have a VIN for the thing, and I'm looking for ways to change it. With my last car ('69 Camaro RS), it seemed as if I was always buying something for it....
And I'm torn on names. Waiting for the kids to weigh on on what to name it. I'm leaning towards just plain Coop. But who knows. It'll probably come down to delivery date before it gets settled....

Ok, I just hung up with a very nice ask mini employee who is also a mini driver! yeah! She said that the plant is closed for 2 wks. It will open again next week. So there should be production from the third week of august on. Sounds like everyone with a 36wk production date will be right on schedule. As for me.. I probably will end up a 38-40 wker. Oh, and she said that actual production time is 3-4 days even though they give us a 5-7 day window on production. 4-6 wk shipping time varies because sometimes car's arrive at the dock, and miss the boat and east coast vs west. Now I think I can give them rest for a few days before I give them another call.
