Ask MINI says my vehicle is in the body shop now. Still on schedule for 10/3 completion. I am in California so it will be a longer boat ride for my car. It would be nice to get it before Halloween though. And yes, to your last question. = )

Congrats on getting your order in! You've got me beat by a couple of weeks. I'm still in the "on order" status - no date for production yet. I ordered mine on 9/13 and hoping to have it before the end of October. Enjoy the excitement during the build days. Hope it goes quickly for you . . . and me, and everyone else!

Thanks.. I thought they had said this order put through (9/30) was the last but I'm not sure that's true so I'm curious who's got the last our if they're still going

My JCW HT is now officially "born" and waiting to be released to a carrier. It should look something like the pic.

mine's been "On schedule for production" for some time now. the dealer kind of lead me to believe this would be the last run of the r56's but that doesnt seem to be likely...

Mine was delayed also about 2.5 weeks from original schedule so maybe they are backed up?

Our JCW R56 is sitting on a truck in Frankfurt Germany because yesterday was a German holiday and they are not allowed to work. That is about one hour from my location. I'm thinking it will probably get to the dealer today, then I will have to wait for more paperwork bureaucracy and so on...they are also not fully open here on the weekends. So let the waiting continue...

Ah, that's okay mate; I hope you get on a ship soon. Checked out the WW website and if I luck out and get in one of their ships, the next ship leaving Southampton to Port Hueneme is on 10/10/13, arriving on 10/30/13 on the Tortugas. Otherwise, next one after that is 10/22/13, arriving 11/13/13 on the Elektra. I guess either way I'm looking at a November delivery.

Depressed . . .

I think I'm a bit depressed. Tomorrow marks three weeks since my order went into "scheduled for production - with no date" (and still shows on order in the OL). I just ordered a set of Cocomats in black with red dots to tie in the JCW stitching and now I'm wondering which will come in first - the car or the mats (mats say about 4 weeks for production)! Okay, wait - I'm not depressed. I have a MINI on order!
