Isn't week 45 November 11-17th unless Europe is different in week numbers.
when I called ASKMINI they specifically said I was scheduled for Week 45 and then told me this was the week of November 5-9.

Also when i ordered it on Saturday, my MA showed me a copy of the 2007 production schedule. October 20th was the last day of week 42 meaning we are currently in week 43.

I checked it on my calender also and it would appear that counting the weeks, week 45 would be the one you mention, but not according to ASKMINI or the production schedule I saw. Believe me I'm not gonna argue the point with them.

Maybe Europe is different -- I don't know. As far as the US is concerned, next week is production week 44.

Yep...I called again. And the lady said I'm on the list for week 45 which is Nov 5-10th.

So it actually takes a week to run a car through the whole assembly????

Same here

OL still says ordered but no production date. AM states scheduled for production with no date set.

Dealer states car should be at the dealership 10 days before Christmas!!!!

That seems like a long wait....but a heck of a stocking stuffer. At least I know I will be getting mini accessories for Christmas day!!

Euro week numbers are +1 to ours.

Ordered ours 10/17, got a production number the next week. Supposed to start building on Nov. 5. I share your pain!
