When should the first 2005 models be delivered? Lots of people have "ordered" cars, but there was probably a lot "ordered" before the dealer could actually turn in the order against his allocation. When was the first day a dealer could actually turn in an order on a 2005, and when should those regular production cars be delivered?

 

I believe that we should start seeing them in the latter part of August (if not sooner)... I placed my order last week and have been tracking it on miniusa.com and now see that it's on there as order placed... I guess the next step is to actually see a production date..... hopefully, it's true what my dealer tells me that I should get it in early/mid Sept. and then another week to get it to me here in Cal.
