Original build date date was very early. September I believe. PTS was submitted the first day we were allowed to do so.

ok, whats your projected build date now, have they told you, just curious if your date "is the 1st" on the list ... and we will start to see later dates resolve themselves also ... which would
make sense if there is sense to be made of this process?

Don’t know the build date yet. The assumption was that the factory would now lock the build and it will hit v200, at which point it would show the updated build schedule.

I will know more tomorrow. And don’t kill yourself making sense of it. I’m just enjoying life and patiently waiting for good news. The zen approach to PTS.

good luck - I think all of us are watching with bated breath since you are the pathfinder...

I hope indeed you do move to V2xx and you get a firm date

yes. Me too!! I have a great relationship with them and they don’t hide anything so I’ll get the info we all desperately need! Let’s hope for v200! Seems like a strange call to get otherwise “is this build 100% final?” Not sure why they’d be getting that call if the wheels weren’t in motion.

I agree, seems unlikely that PAG (or even PCNA) would call to check on the finality of a build that is already in the internal system, just for grins or because they had nothing better to do!

in the eternal words of Dave Bowman "something wonderful is going to happen" ...

Congrats and I hope you get confirmation tomorrow! I also hope everyone else gets a courtesy call asking if their build is 100% final. I definitely have a few changes, but have been advised to not "rock the boat" while the boat is in limbo.

By Who? I'd say make the changes ASAP. I did make changes last week. Added PCCB, changed to manual, and belts and stitching went to yellow. There is possibility your car will just lock. No sense in waiting to make changes IMO.

I have a side rather noob question if you guys don't mind indulging me.

I would love to get an interior yellow theme to match my ceramic calipers. I know the yellow belts can be done, and yellow stitching can be had as an exclusive option, but is it possible to get yellow instrument dials/clock as an exclusive option? More importantly, can one get buckets that are either plain black with yellow stitching or black with yellow stipe instead of silver?

All this is assuming that even if all this were possible, I could make it happen now that I am at V180.

Congrats Sean! And you're a VIP in my book. You'll be slower with the manual trans..., but maybe that's okay.

ha! Slower for sure, but I had to try it! I will have a blast with it and cherish every second that I am slower. Changed the transmission 3 times. Basically it was like a slot machine and whatever transmission is In the build when it locks is the one I am going with. Both are awesome. Can’t really go wrong.

So what’s the color, sgroer?? It goes with yellow... so... a blue perhaps? Maybe Ultraviolet?
