My build was supposed to enter Body Shop - V260 on February 25th, got V260 March 4th. V300, vehicle completion on March 11th, but will probably be push back a week or more!

According to my SA, my Spyder should be build. He received the European Delivery paper today. Finger cross 🤞🏻

My CP8 date moved back two weeks to March 18th as well.

But is that Planned or Expected? Per the notice, it is all based on the PLANNED dates (if that makes sense). I promised I would give my SA a week before I asked for PVMS status again. TYD chugs along, no changes. I'm curious if my SCHEDULE PRODUCTION date of the 11th will hold.

My “enter production date” was schedule
for 2-25. It actually entered production 3/7. TYD says expected completion date 3/11. So it looks like I’m good for a
production prior to the cutoff. Hopefully. Will I just receive an email with the photo of the car finished? I have seen others post this . But not sure how you receive the notification

I'm waiting for an update from my SA as well, but the last thing he sent me was a few weeks ago and it showed the planned AND expected V300 date (CP8) was March 4th. However, TYD shows the CP8 date was pushed two weeks back to March 18th. I'll soon find out what it shows in the system on his end.

UPDATE:
Here's what he just sent me. He told me it's already started production and will be done on March 18th. The expected dates have shifted along with what TYD shows. Delivery is now estimated between April 29th and May 6th.

Well, that’s a kick to the ole groin. Mine is sitting in the body shop and was supposed to be done on the 25th which got pushed back one week to now pushed to April.

also bummed to see dates after mine being built, I must have some option that ran out oddly during production. Doesn’t make much sense to me but is what it is.

As a Stop Sale ConRod veteran, I can assure it'll be worth the wait - let's just hope you don't lose an entire summer like we did.

Interesting, we are mirroring each other LOL. I am very worried that my Expected CP8.0 date is after March 14th, but since your SA is stating yours is in production I am hoping mine is too then. My dates have always been virtually the same, except a few weeks ago got pushed back one week. Delivery is same as you to dealer on Apr 29. Hopeful we are both going to somehow slip through and receive our cars amidst all the uncertainty.

Also, since your SA mentioned yours was in production, should V260 not have an actual date posted?

My dealer told me that as of now, it is only a temporary pause and that my car is still scheduled for July delivery. He is going to Atlanta for training and should know more after that.

I was wondering the same thing.. if it indeed started production I would imagine there would be an actual date there. I guess I will find out soon enough. Hoping to know much more by the end of next week since that's when my build is scheduled to be completed.

Can depend on a few things, build option choices may well play a role here... FWIW, this discussion could contain any 718 4.0l model.

Here’s what my sales guy just sent me. A bunch of words and phrases I’ve never heard of before. But he says things are still looking good for me.
