The wait for my CM-S is killing me! Who else is slated for a mid-February build?

I believe this is my week too... called ask-mini and they said it is in assembly, no ETA yet

I need to just bury myself in work until mid march to make this go faster or something

I just called ASK-MINI and they said husband's CM-S entered production today! We just placed the order on Monday (2/14) but we were lucky enough to override one of our dealer's existing production slots.

So, I guess we're Week 7 too, right?

Welcome week 7'ers!

I just called for an update, and my baby is getting her coat of paint today! I'm picturing her sitting in the shop, admiring her new surf blue dress with a white hat. My 40th birthday is at the end of March, and it's looking like I'll have my baby in time for a happy celebration.

I made my daily call to ASK-MINI and they said DH's CM-S, which began production on 2/16/11 at 4:47 AM, has an estimated completion date of 2/23. Very exciting!

Mid February Build

Yes, killing me too. Awaiting my CMS Cosmic Blue w/Conveinience & Cold Weather. The more I read on this forum the slower time passes.

My status changed this morning to 182 - handed to carrier. So she passed QC and is on her way to port. From what I have read, the period between now and when she gets on the boat is a big dark hole of information. :(

Any updates, Week 7 people? I have only been able to confirm that my car arrived at the port. Two ships left yesterday and today to my final port (Brunswick, GA), but I haven't heard yet if my car was on it. Based on what I've read from earlier production week threads, it sounds like there is a backup of cars at Bremerhaven, although I'm still holding out hope that I'll catch one of the two ships this week.

This is getting exciting. Technically I believe i'm a week 8 build since my am status as of Today is 153 (assembly). I've got my Craven Platypus on order for front plate mount and lined up my tint guy for the arrival. Best of all WW has a ship departing Bremerhaven on 10-Mar which is aptly named the 'Mignon'. With my screen name here, what other ship could I expect!
