What does this production status mean?

I thought this was amusing, I had to share. Called on the 5th to check status said had begun production. Estimated completion the 10th. I just called again it says its in the body shop. Thats not something you usually want to hear!. I thought it was amusing, it almost sounds like something bad happen and it needs to be fixed. Completion is still for the 10th.

When do you guys think I might receive it here in Brooklyn, NY a stone throw from NYC?

finished on the 10th on the boat on the 13th, maybe in port on the 26th here by the 30th? Wishfully thinking?? Im hoping i get it by Sept. 1st, i have a road trip on the 2nd and would love to be able to take it to get those first 500+ miles done quick!!!

"The body shop" is what BMW calls the part of the production line where all the metal body parts are welded and glued together to for the complete shell

From there it will go to the paint shop, and then into final production where all the parts will be fitted to the car
