It sure doesn’t take them long to crank out the car once the production process begins. A day and a half sounds about right.

It takes a matter of hours "to make your car."

Takes them about 1.5-2 days, mine was completed on the day of the TPW.

As others have noted here it's not long actually on the assembly line but can be quite a bit more to schedule production as all the appropriate parts have to come together to make assembly possible. With a TPW you should be close with shipping time the real variable that remains.

That's probably total time for all the sub-assemblies + putting it all together. I think it's probably the marriage of all the sub-assemblies that takes 1.5 days or so.

Mine was started early afternoon and was started and driven off the line 3:00pm the next day to alignment and water test. I know because I was following it as it was being built.
