Did you talk to a real person? They may have the scheduled production date. The automated system is always a little behind.

no...automated...to talk to someone use the same 8000 number

If I am not mistaken, your build order number has been selected and placed in a final pool. The next step will be selection and lining up the build slots into the production line/process essentially the beginning of the physical production process....you're getting close.

hahaha..i hope so...does any one know about how long afetr this process.

It should be about a week (or less) for it to enter the 'in production' status with final date. Production should take another 1 week. Transport to POE should be about 1-2 days. Then the dreaded 'at POE waiting for ship' stage..which might take anywhere from a few days to 2 weeks

. Crossing the atlantic should take anywhere from 2.5 to 3.5 weeks (east coast)...after that about 5-10 days for the car to be unloaded, go through VPC/VDC and to reach the dealership....Good Luck!!

Same number but instead of vehicle production status say customer relations. They should have the date when your car will start production.
