Anyone in SoCal currently awaiting transport?

I saw a post where someone on Thursday had their order changed to 'En Route', just wondering if anyone in SoCal has a 2012 CM on order and is awaiting shipment?

My CM was born on 11/14 and is 'en route'. Should be loaded on the MIGNON tonight/tomorrow in Bremerhaven Germany and arrive in Port Hueneme on the 12/12.

Mine is on the Torrens about seven days out of Southampton. It's scheduled into Port Hueneme on 11/30. Getting closer!

The Torrens arrival time was moved to 12/2 in Ca now. Not sure why the delay since it is scheduled to hit the Panama Canal at its originally scheduled time of today at 11pm. Unless there is a storm brewing in the Pacific hopefully they will flip us back to 11/30

Hope you get to watch it through the canal on webcams! One of the few entertainments for the looong wait to Port Hueneme.

My Blue Coupe S with silver roof, winter package, carbon check cloth seats, silver six spoke wheels was arrived at Southampton on the 17th with the shipper and is also on the Mignon. The ship should blase into port in a few hours. From Port H, she has to continue on to Fort Collins, Colorado. This is a really long wait.....


I figured out how to track the ship online.

Mini on board

My 2012 Mini S Coupe, after a grueling wait, has made it on board the Mignon this morning. It's showing a Port H delivery of Dec 15th...soooooo long!! Order started way back in September. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for delivery by Dec 23 so i can take him home for Christmas. My dealership is in LA, so once it gets on the truck it should be only a day.

The Mignon is currently heading 238 deg (SE) through the Azores 39 deg 8 min N by 28 deg 58 min W (Eight days to the canal) Our cars are seeing the world for sure!

Well, you could obsess over just where it is and figure out what boat it is on and track as it goes accross the pond.
Mine is currently on the Mignon and located at N 31 12" W44 54" about seven days out from the transit of the Pnama Canal. Plugging away about 400 NM each day.
