Crevier MINI ?? I'm gonna take my delivery at the end of April.

Just spoke with my sales guy and he said pretty much the same thing.
The ship should reach port on the 16th and then it will take about 1-2 weeks until the car is at the dealership. The dealership is about 4 hours or so from the VDC.

All I know is that I'm taking the day off work when it gets here. No waiting for the weekend for me!!

 

anyone know where the vessel is ? >_<

 

Lost track of it after it hit open sea but it's scheduled to go through the Panama Canal on April 9. Once it hits the Panama Canal you can track it as it goes through via the following link http://www.pancanal.com/eng/photo/camera-java.html. Supposed to arrive in Port Hueneme on the 17th. Looks like we will all have late April deliveries.

Man ... I want my car!

I'm stuck driving other peoples cars until mine gets here and it's awful.

 

I Hear you... In the same situation. This has been the most painful wait ever!

 

so,how was the reliability of our baby?

 

LOL I'm actually driving a rental car right now because my car sold a LOT faster than I thought it would. The only thing good about the car is that it will make me that much more happy when I get in my new baby.

 

Any update on the Butterfly? What time should we be watching the web cam to see our cruise ship head through the canal?? Can't wait!!

 

Good question. If anyone here has time keep it tuned to the following link tomorrow:

http://www.pancanal.com/eng/photo/camera-java.html.

Surely someone will catch it passin' through. After that, 7 more days to the Port Hueneme VDC

 

did anyone know how many minis will usually loaded each vessel?

 

Thanks for the link! I definitely see multiple cargo ships passing, but I don't know which one is ours!

 

Look for any boat that is green and white based on the pics posted earlier in this thread. I've checked a few times myself but hard to do while at work. I'm figuring that sometime by this evening that we will have made it through.

 

just watching a vehicle vessel passing panama cannel,but not MA

 

but whatever,our babys has already pass the cannel...

 

No, at this moment the MB is still berthed at Manzanillo. Expect transition of the canal tomorrow. Try this URL:

Remember, there is about 1 hour delay.

 

from 04/11/08 to 04/19/08...its really making me crazy..wish it wont be late any more.

 

WW Site now says the Madame Butterfly will arrive in Port Huenene on 4/20...they must be rowing this thing by hand!

 

No kidding ....

 

They are behind 13 days from their original schedule...this is killing me. ARGH!!

 

Great.... *sigh*

 

We should all e-mail the WW line and tell them to take the lead out of the butt of the Madame Butterfly. Either that or they need to connect a few of those MCS engines to the engine of the MB
