Why, are you interested? Everything is up in the air right now. As it is, I might not even be able to get the one I ordered (long story). I hope to know more tonight, after we head down to Peabody for the launch party.

thanks, i found it on a bmw forum....apparently we're traveling with a bunch of the new 1 series that loaded at bremerhaven. i just noted that our launch got pushed back to today.....i guess that's why she's still in the channel. arrival time in newark is still the same though!

Yahoo! The Faust is a Swedish ship! Meatballs, massages, Ingmar Berman films, ABBA, and IKEA! Plus shuffleboard and other cruise activities! Hopefully the North Atlantic will provide reasonably calm seas and bring us to port soon so we can stop all this shameless anthropomorphizing.

Watching these ships cross on sailwx is pretty interesting. Their weather reports every 6 hours show the rigors of the atlantic. The integrity has seen near 20' seas and is now moving in close to the canadian maritimes - must be trying to avoid weather out on the grand banks.

vesseltracker has the faust entering the channel....but no longer is able to track the elektra. i'm guessing the info i got on sailwx is wrong....better be wrong, or our mini's are headed for anarctica!! and at an alarming speed since they were in the channel yeasterday!! (sorry, i'm too tech inept to paste image of the sailwx route)

I am Kinda feels real when the Mini's are loaded on a vessel. I can't find any tracking information; guess they don't report weather info.

Aw, hush, you guys. My VIN isn't showing up on there yet...

Do you all promise to post pix when you get your cars?? We should have a thread of "new babies week 5/6" when they start rolling in.

Baby albums! Sounds good. Is anyone having a "baby" shower, buying detailing products, MINI knick knacks, layette, etc? I'm still trying to find time to clean out the "nursery" which currently resembles a disorganized garage/laundry room.
