Man, what an ordeal. Hopefully it's all come to an end.

Update:

Production started at 7:32 am.

Have my VIN also. Just glad it finally started and now I don't have to worry about it moving back. Didn't get a warning from my dealer it was about to start. I have heard others got this notice.

Now, I can go into phase 3 of the waiting process.

PS, PS, PS

Congrats.

Best regards, south

Congrats E!

I'm glad your car is on the assembly line after your production date moved around so much.

I didn't get any warning either. I am not sure that CAs get too much of a warning themselves. I think they can see that "parts or being collected for your car" before production officially starts. Mine went into a production a week earlier than scheduled.

If I don't like it, I will be ripping it all off and sending you the bill.

I hope IB is ok too.

Recently saw it on an M6, that wasn't that well maintained, and it didn't really excite me.

PS is awesome in person. It does have a light blue in it. It will go very well with CF trim and IB. You won't be dissappointed.

Epacy · 03-14-2008, 12:08 PM

That's not the right hue.

A little reminder. Savage's pics show the hue quite good IMO:
