Is it possible to go from V200 to V150?

My SA just sent my revised build sheet. The prior was V200 and now its V150.

Dan Nagy

If I understand correctly, V150 reflects a change order and should go back to V200 when they computer figures out the impact on the production schedule. I hope my build date didn’t get screwed. Has anybody experienced this?

That is correct, sounds like you've updated your build after it went V200, so it will likely impact your build schedule by a few weeks. Happened to me when I added an option and pushed me out by a few weeks right into the COVID plant shutdown in March 2020!

Dan Nagy

Aw crap. The changes were so minor - if only I had known ahead of time.

Happened to me as well, several times...if I had not done it the car I am waiting on now would be here soon, and now it looks like a few more months! But at least I am going to get what I want.

Dan Nagy

That’s a good way to look at it. I am getting exactly what I want.

Interesting. I changed my Spyder tires from UHP to HP summer tires. I wonder if mine will back up for something like that.

Dan Nagy

I hope not, but if it went to V150, that’s not good…

Oh that would be frustrating. Did the V150 also erase all the other target dates? When I went to V200 all my dates and estimates were populated all the way to dealer delivery. Are those still the same?

Also here’s a good thread explaining all the V numbers:

Thanks for this info, I didn't foresee small build changes making a big impact to the schedule. I have a few changes I'd like to make to my build, will talk this over with my SA first. When you get back to V200, can you post up how it impacted your schedule?

Care to share what changes you’re making to your build? Would like to know what would cause something to be pushed back. If it is an “exclusive manufacture” option, I understand. But if it is just a standard item, I would assume it should not affect your build date.

Dan Nagy

I don’t know yet. I received the notice last last night right before the dealership closed. I’ll post the outcome.

Dan Nagy

Yes, I added leather sun visors, the fuel cap, fire extinguisher, and probably the problem, went to PSAM.

So, I am now back to V200 but my finished production date slipped from August 27 to September 3. That’s not so bad… maybe better that the car isn’t sitting on the production line for a month. It was scheduled originally to go into the body shop on July 27.

it doesn't ... once the body in white is painted and cured its immediately sent for assembly. the whole production process is "just in time" ... all those dates you see in the internal system are "provisional"
