    Apparently there is a global production freeze due to the new ERP system Ferrari put in place to manage the orders/options of the cars. My CaliTHS was supposed to be a January build and now looks to move into February (maybe March). Very puzzling as my order has been in for a few months. Anybody have any news on this or experiencing a similar situation?

    Back in 2013 my Cali30 was built in the Feb-March timeframe and I picked it up in late April so I think you are probably still OK. I hope FoO will have good news for you.

    For as long as they've been doing this (just the past few years), it's been 2 photos

    Once of the primer'd chassis before paint (which I'm unsure is the same pic for everyone!), one at Station 1 of Final Assembly (body, painted) and at Final Inspection of Assembly (completed).

    As a bit of trivia,if your car is built on the V8 line (downstairs), the time between picture 2 and 3 is about 48 hours, even though the pictures somehow might arrive weeks apart. Some Cali's have been assembled on the V12 line upstairs, which has a 3 day flow time start to finish.

    As for the "ERP" issue, I have no facts but would not be surprised if the conversion brought them to their knees. MODIS is horribly outdated, but getting ready for a full ERP implementation is painful; we have 2 clients right now who can barely take orders and ship due to botched ERP. And, yes, the impacts can be far and wide....

    I looked but nothing. I will contact the dealer, I doubt they have any control or influence but I will check

    My Cali is supposed to be a Jan build. My dealer is also saying that they cannot see the status updates.

    About a week into February and at least status is showing now but it's at 10G, no movement.
