How long in production

My M6 convert has been listed as in production for two weeks now. How long does it take to complete build and how quickly after that does it ship? thanks.

I guess I will answer my own question for those who might be interested. Two weeks after production began the car has left the plant for shipment. I hope it loads and ships soon. Like to have before Labor Day.

Finally arrived at port

It took 2 weeks to make the trip across the pond. I was originally told it should be about 10 days. I was hoping to have it for the weekend but I guess I will have to settle for next week.

car finally here

It took a week to get car from port to dealer. Now it may take a couple of days to title and register car as certificate of origin hasn't arrived. It sure is easier to buy off the lot if you can find what you want.
