I just found out that my MINI is scheduled to finish production on Feb 14, so it looks like I am part of this cycle as well.

Curious - how is week 8 from 02-11 to 02-21 - that's a week and a half?
I was told my MCS is a second week February build, I thought that might be week 7?

I typed the wrong number it should be 2-15 to 2-21 but there is no way to edit the name(that I know of). It look like my car became a week 7 and started today

Hope mine is coming down the line right behind yours!
Did you get your info from Owner's Lounge or your MA?
Being Canadian we don't have the Owner's Lounge feature, so I await an email from the dealer.

I got my info via the automated phone line; it simply said something along the lines of in production with a scheduled finish date of 2/14. The Owner's Lounge doesn't have anything as detailed, it just says "Scheduled for Production." Haven't talked to a human yet, be it MA or via the main phone line, to get more details.

Hopefully you guys catch the same breaks my MCS has - production has completed, it arrived at Southampton port the 10th, sailed that day (Faust) and is due at Halifax port Feb. 17th!
Good luck.

THANKS. I've been scouring the forums looking for this info.

I ordered on 2/2 and was expecting a prolonged wait. I was pleasantly surprised to see a 'scheduled for production' status after only a couple of days. I am not complaining.
