Red Cooper We're in labor . . .

Today the status of my Chile Red MCS changed from on order to scheduled for production.

Now that I have reached this milestone how long does it typically take to reach delivery in the U.S.?

I know some luck is invloved in how quickly the car moves through the delivery channel - to the dock, on the boat, across the pond and on to my dealer.

Thanks in advance for your input.
