Build starts with stage 151 Body shop ( about 1 day), then 152 paint shop (another day), and then 153-155 assembly ( one day). If you are real good, you can catch the 3 phases by calling the number daily. It takes about 3 days to do the three ( maybe less) and they then transport the car to shipping. 2-3 days later you are at the port stacked up waiting for a ship.
are you saying an order goes 150 10 days prior to construction starting? If so, I assume this means that you go 150 well before your build week?
