Forever..

or so it will seem. Sorry I really don't know, just trying to get out of 1st gear and can use the extra posts. There will be someone here with a much better estimate for you I'm sure. While you're waiting you can think of a name. I believe it's a MINI law that you have to give your new car a name.

I just picked up my MCS from Westchester Mini last Friday. I'm not sure of the build week, but it was a little less than 6 weeks from my order date (mid-June) to when the site said it was at the dealer. And it was another week before the dealer called to tell me it was ready to pick up.

I just picked up mine on Monday, Aug 13...I ordered it less than a month ago, and I think my completion date was July 23. It arrived at the port of NY on Aug 4 (I think), and took just under a week to get through the VDC and up to Buffalo.

The owner's lounge is always a little behind it seems, as my dealer called and told me it was being unloaded off the truck at the dealership and the OL still had it as "in transit," having not even gone through the VDC yet.

Call 866-ASK-MINI as it goes into production to follow its progress through the factory...

I went to the dealer in Jersey, Prestige Mini, on July 14th and placed my order. Got the call yesterday that the car was in. Only problem now is that I won't have the finances squared away until this Saturday. Wasn't expecting the car to be in so fast.
