Nice! Congrats!! I wonder if they still produce on Saturday and Sunday?

I was wondering that too. You would think they would be working around the clock if they are trying to get 55k deliveries this year. But you don't see any weekend days on the spreadsheet for any milestones, at least from what I have seen.

Just got a call from the DS! The car is entering production the week of 4/20. This means my May delivery date will become an EARLY May delivery date! I'm all kinds of excited now!

Welcome to TMC. Did you mean you ordered the P85D (title says P85 which we can fix)?

My car just updated to 'In transit...' within the past hour. Wow! I JUST got off the phone with my DS regarding my trade and she said I should still expect delivery the week of 5/4, but I'm hoping this update grants me another week advancement!:love:

I just got a call this morning from the DS. The car is in transit and will be delivered 4/28 around noon. I'm on cloud nine right now. Time for a margarita!!!

Already made a needless trip into town to buy batteries...

Here's a montage of screen saves I've made as my S85 has progressed. Nice to see it's on its way. My sales guy said this evening (nice he communicates on Sundays) it probably won't be here tomorrow but he's going to see if he can find where it is. If it's within a couple hours' drive I may just go hunt it down. :)

Man, my order is almost the same as yours - subtract out Smart Air and add in Premium Sound, and everything else (textile seats, red paint, everything) between your car and mine is identical. Yours was ordered a few days after mine and went into production at the same time. But mine's still stuck in production limbo :( Mine has to go on a train to Ohio, but yours is being trucked to Utah. I wonder if that's the difference? They're waiting for a full train-load of cars to head to the east coast before mine clears production?

I would imagine your car would come out of production and move to 'in transit' while it waits for a rail car. How many days has yours been in prod status?

9 days ago. It changed status on April 18th. My DS says it should take about 3 weeks from entering production to arriving in Ohio, but seeing other people's cars move out of production in just a couple of days is disheartening.

I was told about 2 weeks, just in case something needs to be repainted, reprogrammed, etc. But mine still came out after 4 days. I'm crossing my fingers that yours is updated soon!

FWIW, my DS just rang to say the car has not left the factory after all and that it may be a few more days. Ugh!

Ouch Patrick, sorry to hear that.

Meanwhile, Jimmy, are you still counting down the hours or have you switched to minutes yet?
I think at this time I have no concept of time. It's crawling along like I'm 3 levels deep in Inception. 2 days is like 10 seconds in real life! Haha. Hopefully a nice cocktail or two will finish out the night and I'll sleep like a baby.

And FWIW, mine just changed in status, from being built to entering the production queue. I went backwards! :(

And edited. It now shows as production complete, in transit. Sweet!
