I bet you go into production any day. Then your 8 days away from completion.
Hang in there you really are closer than you think.

As of yesterday I don't yet have a production date for mine, although it's only been a week since I placed the order. But since I had to order the weirdo color (LG), now I'm half nervous that I won't see the car before I see snow.

Still in On Order status. It's supposed to be built in week 42. How many days before production starts does it change status to "Scheduled for Production"?

Jim, that's one bad a$$ looking Coupe. Superb look. Hearty congrats.

Wish we were coming to WRR #400 to see it in person but, alas, we'll be exercising the fall twisties at MITO '11 instead that weekend. We'll keep an eye out for you motoring through eastern IA, and in any event will hope to see you at the HPMS event next Spring.

I will probably stay in Davenport the night of the 20th If you will be coming through then on your way to OZ.

Wednesday night would have worked. By the night of the 20th we'll be setting up shop in Eureka Springs. Others of our group not going along will be alerted to your local presence.

For my Coupe... The OL changed to "Scheduled For Production" on 9/8 and ASK MINI went from "Your vehicle is scheduled for production with no confirmed production date" to "Your vehicle is in the body shop with an estimated completion date of 9/16" on 9/14. Production was indeed completed on the 16th (and it arrived at the port on 9/20). Therefore, to answer your question (as it happened to me), eight days before.

The wait is driving me nuts. I guess there is nothing to do but wait.

Hopefully we will see our coupes in production sometime next week. I am trying to keep a positive attitude. At least I can go visit my friend (mschiml), he should have his in hand Thursday! I can drool over his coupe!

Congrats to all of you who are getting your coupes in the very near future!!!

Cred, you can always keep bugging your MA for udpates. They sometimes have more current status'.
Do you know what vessel Mschimi was on? I know him from Windy City BMW autox and heard at the last event he had one coming, but he had left already so I didn't get a chance to talk to him about it.

Looks like somebody deleted 5-8 and everything after 15. DoH facepalm. They also removed some of the columns (no longer has ship information).

Owner of the sheet can open it and go to File -> Revision History and restore it. And also see who was the culprit

Are they deleted or hidden? Looks like there was a sort on the columns.

someone applied a filter and messed things up.

I think I put it back to normal, but I could be wrong. There was a sort applied to one of the columns as well.

They were sorted by Production #. Now the order doesn't match the roll call here.

Sorry guys but it might have been me (or more likely the **** poor Google docs)... I didn't delete anything, I didn't apply any filters, nor did I make any changes to the worksheet (nor did I save the worksheet), but I did set the sort order this morning to the production completed date column as that makes MUCH more sense to me when I view the worksheet. D'oh! Sorry if that messed things up for everyone, but quite frankly, if one can't set the column sort order in a Google docs spreadsheet without screwing up the spreadsheet for all users, then Google docs is total garbage and we shouldn't be using it. Office Web Apps would be MUCH better IMHO.

I have no idea which ship his coupe was on. Sorry, I forgot to ask.

No harm no fowl. I restored everything to how it was at 6:30 AM yesterday morning. Change as you will.
But in contrast I just had the most amazing two and a half hour drive home
Will have some more pics to load. Not the best I am sure as I was not able to get out of the dealer before dark but we shall see.

It might have been me as well. I applied a sort and hid some columns, but didn't hit SAVE. I figured if I just closed the window, everything would go back to normal like an Excel spreadsheet. I was trying to "logically" figure out based on the few who have taken delivery when I will have mine!
