Default Got build date yesterday!

Yesterday, Kevin at Blade informed me that he received a build date of 13 August

He also told me that I should see the car here in WA at the end of August to the first part of September.

Would anyone like to share the timeframes from when they received the build date to when they actually got the car recently?

I would appreciate your responses.

Mine came off the line on June 24th (2005) and arrived at the dealer in northern California on July 8th. Note that it was in transit but not moving for a 3-day holiday weekend.

Aug. 13 is not a build date, but it is a TPW, Target Production Week.

So, you car will start production sometime that week and it usually takes 3 days to produce the car. So, the car could be finished anywhere from August 15th to August 21st. They usually state the the car arrives at the dealership in usually less than two weeks. So, very late August to very early September seems very reasonable.
