Same build week as yours. Are you doing performance center delivery?

No. I wanted to but my CA said that would add 2 or 3 weeks. Not sure why. I thought it would save time. Are you?

GASP! Just checked the site during a commercial while watching the Lightning-Blackhawks game. Totally expected nothing. It’s moved from Order Received to SCHEDULED FOR PRODUCTION! Now I want to check twice as often!

Called genius line this morning. Scheduled for production with no confirmed production date. Errr...How does that make sense. I mean it's either scheduled or it isn't. Right? When I schedule something I put it on my calendar! Kind of the definition of scheduled!

If your order follows the timeline of mine you will get "Production Begins" in a few days with your car's VIN. Genius was also able to tell me an estimated completion date. That means you're officially in Status 150. Now depending on your options, you could be in Status 150 state for a few weeks before actual physical production occurs.

Got it. When you first changed to Scheduled for Production did you also not have a confirmed date?
Thanks

My car was in scheduled for production (Status 112) for a few weeks. It took a long time for the web portal to catch up to it because it was showing "Order Received" (Status 111) for the longest time, but the Genius was telling me 112. So to answer your question, No, I did not get a production date at status 112, just an anticipated build week (week 50).

My recent timeline was like this:
Friday, 11/15/19: Web portal switched from "Order Received" to "Scheduled for Production"
Wednesday, 11/20/19: "Production Begins" - now instead of a production number I have a VIN.

Since my anticipated completion date is 12/10 - I image I'll be in "Production Begins" until the first week of December.

Before I continue let me just say thanks to community here for giving my insanity a sounding board. My wife thinks (knows) I'm nuts.

So I called and got a human. He said my car is listed as in "daily production" He wasn't even sure what is means. He said there was no confirmed date. He said maybe it means they are building it right now. So I said don't tease me!!

Has anyone heard "Daily production" or something along those lines?
Thanks!

Just heard from my CA. Told me the earliest I can pick up the car at the PCD is early January. Pretty big bummer considering the car is estimated to be complete 12/10. I was fully expecting it to be home before the end of the year.

I think he might not be reading the full status...112 is technically "Scheduled for daily production". My guess is it is still in 112, especially since it is not showing a confirmed date.

On a side note, my build went 112 yesterday too, but my build week was scheduled as 1. I have heard that a build can stay in status 112 for weeks, but here's hoping it will go 150 before the first week in January.

Makes perfect sense. My dealer said I was also scheduled for first week in January. I just keep hoping they under promise and over deliver!!

Too funny!

I have a PCD question. I’m not doing PCD. I thought I read they have classes and stuff there. Can’t you just schedule a class there sometime after you get your car and have the same or similar experience?

TIA

If you do the PCD as part of your car purchase it's at no additional cost to you. I look at it as a white glove delivery of your vehicle because in addition to the road course you get one on one treatment from a genius who walks you through the setup and features of your new ride.

Yes you can. I believe it is free with PCD but I'm not sure if they charge you if you schedule it later. Maybe someone else can weigh in.

Just had my CA check the status in his system. It has indeed gone 112, and my production week moved up to 51! Still going to be hard pressed to get it before the end of the year.

My car also moved to scheduled for production sometimes this afternoon because in the morning it was still in order received. I guess I will check like crazy from now on and get my SA crazy.
