Thanks, Mike -

Should Zymurgy add this update to the main 'Constraint Reports' Sticky thread ???

mpuzach

Yes. I've notified him that this thread is here and ready to be added to the sticky.

Thanks for posting the report. I am really interested now that I have ordered a car. I need to watch the carbon fiber top constraint. Looks like that will keep me out 2 to 3 weeks.

Stupid question, but why would a color combination have an engineering constraint? for instance the NRB and Carbon Fiber Hood. Are they concerned about paint adhesion?

mpuzach

There's no way to know the impact that the 34% roof panel constraint will have on your order. It could get picked up in the coming week or it could take weeks or even months. There's really no rhyme or reason to it.

As for your question about NRB and the CF hood, I have no idea as to the answer; sorry. It's not about paint adhesion because the exposed CF area of the hood isn't painted.

Zymurgy

It has been added.

How accurate is the production week? Do all end up scheduled in that week?

mpuzach

In most cases, once you have a TPW it ends up being accurate.

C7s

I know that but the constraint week gives a TPW week. I wonder how accurate that is.

mpuzach

It's 100% accurate. It means that the constraints are in effect for cars getting built that week.

Orders that get "picked up" this week (between now and next Tuesday) are anticipated to be built the week of August 10th. In the vast majority of cases, this will be accurate.

C7s

Ok thanks. It was accurate the week mine got picked up. But the following week the consensus TPW was 7/20. So it went from 8/3 to 7/20 and didn't understand that. Why would they schedule August before July was filled up?

mpuzach

I honestly have no idea.

So if my order went from 1100 to 2000 today. August 10th is a good estimate?

mpuzach

It should come off the line during that week.

My birthday is that Friday. That would be cool to have my car built that week. Excited!!
