http://www.novascotiawebcams.com/hal...#axzz1LFKjGAuj awww, I dont see it on the map anymore, so it must be out too far past the Halifax area. Not consistent with the sailwx information. Oh well, she is on the way, anyway.
tomorrow NY, and then soon home to me!

I decided I needed a getting in the mood boost to all the excitement generated here, so I watched "The Italian Job." That worked too well as now I am thinking about the mods that did not make my initial cut. Okay, back to something productive-reading the manual.

First thing this morning I checked the progress, and she was pulling into port. I am really hoping to hear from the dealer soon. my status on the "Mini-usa" track your baby still says she is at sea partying with other coopers. I cant wait to see it say "at the distribution center".

FYI, I started another thread and my dealer is saying they will honor the option credit but they CANNOT honor the 0.9% interest rate, they can only offer the 2.9%. The are verifying this, but that is their present offer. MINI will only say that the dealerships can do anything they want.

Any word from your dealer on when your mini should arrive? Mine is out of office & I'm getting impatient!

Hoping to pick up next week!

Mine said the same, and said that once they reach the port sometimes the arrive at the lot in 2 days , or 2 weeks . He will not know until it actually arrives, then they take a day or two to go over it, depending on the service schedule. then they will call me when its ready. this cannot be soon enough for me.
Actually he said that he will drive it around and take photos of him and my new baby car enjoying philadelphia and e-mail them to me, and then he will call me to pick it up in June or July. He has an over-active sense of humour!
