What's the build status of your car?

frankiebones · 04-19-2021, 12:34 PM

My Individual Fire Orange G80 went into the paint booth today. Despite having ordered custom builds in the past, I am unsure what the timeframe is due to the individual color.

I have reached out to my VIP Customer Coordinator to clarify.

Went to 'Production Begins' today, week 18 build.

Was hoping this would happen for my Week 18. Maybe Tartufo doesn't give me any better odds to be bumped up.

Maybe they adjusted my build week, week 18 is what my dealer quoted me 2 weeks ago.

Oh they definitely bumped you up. I'm fairly certain you're now Week 16, as I believe Week 18 is May 2 - 10.

geez, everyones going into production here

week 17 and I'm still in the 112 corner like the ugly duckling at the dance

Still stuck at 112, got a bad feeling I'm going to be bumped out from week 17.

Anything special about your order? Did you the full boat or pretty basic?

Just went into Production Started on my Week 18 build. Thought maybe Tartufo was going to hold me up. Also didn't know this happens more than once a week.

JoshuaevansF87 · 04-20-2021, 09:27 AM

I been at "order received" for about 2 weeks how long does it take to get to the next step or even go into production? My dealer told me 4/20 my car should start production but I guess not.

Mine was at 111 until about a month prior to my scheduled build week (17) then it went to 112

Does anyone know if the phone automated status is any more up to date that the website tracking?

They do have more information than the website but you need to talk to an actual person who will look it up for you. FWIW, I have the same build as you and week as you minus the Park Assist and CF interior. I also did 6MT. Went to 150 on the site last Friday.

From what I understand, you should see 150 sometime this week with a completion towards the end of next week.

I also did the standard seats with ventilation. Wonder if the seats play a role in the timing.

Mine took about a month to go from 111 to 150. Call the Genius number and speak with a person, they have more info than the website or the automated response.

tommydieselm3 · 04-20-2021, 12:30 PM

still sitting in status 112... apparently week 18 production.... wonder if I have a shot at getting bumped up to 17 or 16 at this point considering we are in week 15....

calibro9 · 04-20-2021, 12:38 PM

Dispatched from factory. How long after this point until it arrives at dealer? I'm going to Galveston TX Port

9153mark · 04-20-2021, 12:38 PM

Mine has passed through body / paint and now pre assembly start...
I'm just pretending the scheme mobile footage is mine as I'm clearly not that important.
You would think in this day n age a few well placed cameras could auto send photos to our emails as the car moves through production

I'm guessing there are plenty of people who would object to having their entire workday live streamed on the web
