For my fellow Prestige buyers,

I just got off the phone with my MA, Dan, and he indicated that if we are dropped off at the VDC on Saturday, there is a pretty good chance we can take delivery after Tuesday or Wednesday of next week! Yee haw!

Yeah I was in there today and spoke to Dave and he told me it could be 3 days or even 7-10. So we'll just have to wait and see!

Congrats!

I was at Prestige today (only live 2 miles away) getting info on the alarm and a MCS spoiler on my MC and I went poking around the side so I must have seen your car! I thought I saw Rictus there but it was another SS/B MC! (it had front fogs so I knew it wasn't mine)

Mine should be in real soon then! Did you have any stripes put on the car? I ask b/c that might be my holdup at the VDC....

Who's your MA?

My Owner's Lounge now says "at the distribution center".
Only 4 days late with the update.
I wonder if the dealer will wait four days to call me after he receives the car until the Owner's Lounge gets updated to "at the dealer"?

No stripes I'll put them and the St.andrews roof sticker on myself.
I can only get up there Saturday to pick it up but prestige say's they only allow pick up at 7:30am only do to being short staffed. My MA is Afton and she's been great to work with.

Congrats everyone.

My MA emailed me on the 21st and told me it was at the port and he should know by Monday when it would be at the dealership. I called him today and he said that it was scheduled to be in Orlando next Friday but that it may be longer. Also told me that now he would'nt be sure until Wednesday. So basically he just gave me the runaround once again. I'm really wishing I would have purchased from Tom Bush MINI!
