Went to the owner's lounge a little while ago and discovered I've been graduated to, "Scheduled for Production". That does build up the excitement a bit. Having now a VIN number gives me that tingling feeling of early ownership.

The big surprise though was the 12+ minute video of the factory tour that magically showed up as an added bonus. Wow! I'm truly impressed. The whole operation just reeks of professionalism.

One other point .. I've produced company videos in the past. My hat's off to the folks who produced this one. It's a real work of art.

Whatever doubts I've had, especially after reading comments of new Mini Coopers coming from the factory with rattles, have been laid to rest. I'm now convinced that those were simply new product early production issues that are now long gone.

P.S. Can anyone share with me an estimate of how long it typically takes to go from, "Scheduled for Production", to, "Awaiting Transport"?

Oooh exciting

When are you scheduled for delivery?

Lucky!

so, are you the first USA'er here to get scheduled for production? All I have to say is that I am extremely jealous.

Ken, you and I are in the same boat. Heard anything other than the 17th for delivery?
