All Minis unloaded and it departs for Charlston SC Sunday 7/27

I was pretty lucky on my delivery so far. The day I ordered (7/3) I had a production number. My Mini was built and completed on 7/16 at midnight and was at the port on 7/17, On 7/18 it was loaded on the ship and the ship left for NYC.

As far as a clear bra, I'm not sure, I wasn't planning on it. Do you have a link for info regarding a clear bra? Pricing? etc?

Maybe we could all try to use the latest update when adding our own info, thus avoiding this. I have seen it happen a few times now, when someone updates a list from a previous page...

I only ask b/c I'm getting it and if you were then it 'd give me an even more accurate idea of when to expect mine based on yours. I wasn't trying to sell you on it or anything. I'm a bit paranoid about it being my first brand new car and all, though I see a lot of people get it.

i was quoted 545 for the clear bra.

I am envious because I completed with yooz guy and may be on the Southern Highway or sitting on the dock still waiting for a ride.
Things are not looking good for me as far as delivery goes... my MA told me today that it's not showing "received" yet but should come sometime this week... then it will take another 10 days (average) to prep it and invoice it until it is released to me.

I got a call from my MA and was notified that the Clubman arrived yesterday afternoon... of course I had to look myself and verify the VIN number! Well... the VIN number matches and we got aquainted for the first time

Now i'm just waiting for it to go through customs and get invoiced so that I can register it.

The TURANDOT has gone missing! It's not reported it's position, at least on sailwx since the 27th!!, http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shi...html?call=SGBA . The WW site itself records it having departed Baltimore on the 28th. Anyone here on the east and was on the TURANDOT?

Yup, that site's usability is insane. I couldn't track the Fedora either. However WW site's claims it left Halifax, Canada today and expected to reach NY on the 31st. Use http://schedule.2wglobal.com/AppSchedules and Search by vessel, click on the first voyage. You should be motoring in a week from now

Thanks for checking!

as for the motoring within a week:( I thought so too , in fact figured i could pick it up aug 7th, but my ma said that they need 2 days with it for inspection and installing the phone cradle, then they have to schedule a guy to come and put the clear bra on, local guy, but still needs to fit his schedule. long story short, ma said the following week is a better estimate

I haven't been able to find Southern Highway using any of the vessel trackers, but I imagine it is half way to NY, and should get there on the 1st of August. I just wish I could see it make its progress...

For those on the Caribbean Highway, it's leaving Baltimore as well, about 300m ahead of the Turandot. Anyone else think they swapped a few of the buggers?

Interestingly for the Southern Highway, the map centers on Southampton, but doesn't show a marker. Pretzel, I hope it is just outdated data.

I sure hope so! It sailed on the 25th, so it better not be doing laps around Southampton for the past 4 days...

Hopefully the Turandot can make up some time... but I looks like we won't be pulling into Hueneme until Aug 10th now.
