I have been waiting a few weeks for mine to go to the next phase. It went into 150 last week so not sure how long they are taking but hopefully Sept? That sound realistic??

You need a production number first. You'll get a VIN when they start to build it. Call your dealer and ask for your production number and then go to mini.com and go to the owners lounge and sign up.

Thank you for the info... They said it would take 8 weeks to build, ship and deliver a car. Is this accurate?

It takes about 8 days to build. Then when on a boat, it take 8 more days to NJ. Read the How To Track your mini thread it has lots of info.
