Mine hasn't entered production either. Some cars get built in as little as a week, so I won't panic unless it still hasn't entered production on 8/30.

Just flipped today!! Production has begun! I have a VIN woohooo

I'm afraid to call and find out I've been moved to a different build week.

jpsimon · 08-23-2021, 02:53 PM

I’m sure they will soon

F80SRT · 08-23-2021, 05:46 PM

I have to admit, with all these global delays I'm starting to wonder if the online tracker isn't just fubar, and creates more frustration than it's worth. This process has been tough to follow. At present I'm 21 days in Production Started...but I've been told week 35 since I got bumped from week 27 back in early July. Sigh.

I'm week 35, and I'm still at production scheduled

When did you get your order approved or submitted? Trying to figure out how far I am out from your order and guess on when mine will flip.

That's meaningless. It's all about when the dealer gets an allocation, and what week it's for. An order without an allocation = on a waiting list

Well I was originally week 26 but when my individual color got approved I switched to week 35. Which "should" be next week but some people who are saying they were told week 35 are already switching to 150.
Just curious if I can divine if I still have a week or will it change this week.

My status changed to 150 on August 6th. Called in today as well and I'm scheduled to be completed on Aug 30th. Only days apart from you. I have to say, the wait feels like eternity.

I have been calling them weekly. Still told week 35. I have had my production number and week for a while.
The wait is just driving me nuts

I'm confused on the weeks too. People on this board says the week means the week it's completed, but when you call, it sounds like the week is production start. Not sure. The wait and uncertainty is painful, but will be worth it in the end.

its interminable. if i knew it'd take this long...and the used car market was going to explode...i wouldve gone month to month on the F82 we had and sold it for MORE than what we got for it in April. i guess its a wash by not having the payments since April...except for, yanno, not having an M to drive.

as many times as i've called...and its been a bunch....not one person that i've spoken to has referenced a 'week' after it got to 150. there's always been a 'date' for completion.

What about before production start? I'm week 35, but it hasn't started production yet.
