I actually just called ask mini (I'm limiting myself to once a week...) and the girl there gave me my VIN number and she said my MINI looks like it actually got bumped up a week...she said it's getting ready for assembly line, and to give it 5-7 days until it goes through the assembly line!
I actually might not be week 16 after all!

Not sure yet! I think it'll come to me one time when I'm driving around! Maybe Petey though. You?
Oooh, I just found out I've actually been moved up to production week 14! My mini is actually in the paint shop right now! Yay!

I *think* I'm week 16
I ordered on 4/5 and on Friday 4/11 my MA gave me the production number. I called miniusa and they told me the car was in the paint shop. Then I checked online and it says "Scheduled for Production"; I've read in other posts that the website is often not up to date, so I'm concluding that it is in production right now, though I will check the website every day! I am thinking this makes me "week 16" but I'm not sure.

sfomini, I think we are in the same boat as you...or at least we ~will~ be in the same boat. We ordered our Clubman on 4/5. Went back to the dealer to make a change to the order and were told that our car was already in production. He checked the system and it said ours was in the paint shop as well on 4/12.
Good news, because we weren't expecting production to start until the end of April/beginning of May. Bad news, because now I have to retrofit the rear fog light option at my cost and effort.

I was told back at the end of March/beginning of April that my Clubbie was scheduled for PW 17, but called ASK-MINI yesterday and found out that it started production on the 13th!
Guess that makes me a 16er!
Now I have to find out if my last minute additions (sunroof and auto AC) made it in time...

The dealer said they have a 2 week shutdown at the production line coming up, or at least his allocations showed a two week gap in the production runs. Perhaps they are trying to push some cars through early (by moving up some orders) to beat the shutdown. Perhaps some of these cars are "taking cuts" in line.
