My MA is hoping for a Wednesday/Thursday delivery...if thats the case I can pick her up on Saturday. That will give them plenty of time to get the clearbra on the car and the rear fog. If the car does not arrive until Friday then the earliest the car will be ready will be Monday....in that case it may have to wait until next weekend before I can go get her. My MA has not been returning emails or VMs today so I am in limbo Like I said in an earlier post the VDC is less than an hour away from my dealer but I am sure mine will be loaded with others bound for dealers in the Wash DC area.

Ordered a NOAH car cover for it the other day. Found a great deal on ebay...the seller tossed in the cable and lock and even the storage bag for free. No charge for shipping...all for $150! Stay away from the mini car cover...its garbage.

HEMI: Any word from your MA? I just wonder if they do not know when it will be delivered until it shows up at the dealer.

My Mini will be left outside, so a cover would be nice. I'd like to know what you think of your cover and how easy it is to put on and take off.

Also, could you use your tracking magic to see if/when the LIBERTY has left Baltimore? Thanks!

Talked to my MA today......he started giving me a sob story about how the BMW computer system sucks yadda yadda yadda and then told me that they already installed my rear fog light! My car got dropped off this AM and it will be ready for pickup on Saturday!

We already went over all of the dealer modified settings and the clearbra is getting put on the car tomorrow or Friday. THe car will be ready Friday but I have decided to wait until Saturday to pick it up because a. I have to work and the weather is going to be bad with rain and snow.

I'll check up on the Liberty and keep you posted!

AISLive does not cover the baltimore region with live feeds nor does it cover the carolinas.

FIXXXER is HOME!

Breathless is all I can say! What a fantastic car! Delivery went very well...almost too well! Very solid build and ride. No rattles and the HK cranks!

Was surprised to see Pirreli's on the car...not too shabby!

Oh yeah...she can get up and move!

Annapolis down to Fredericksburg....around 100 miles on her so far and that much closer to breakin! She handled the busiest stretch of highway in the nation (I-95) without a problem...felt very safe and comfy.

Its been years since I drive a manual but its like riding a bike...you never forget.

Just some random thoughts and pictures to follow soon!

Hemi: Great news! Looking forward to the pictures. Also, please let me know how you like the cover.

Just heard from my MA that mine should be ready by the end of the week! It will be interesting to see if my wife will let me drive it home since it is supposedly her car.

How did your dealer let you know what memory options the DSC could set for you on your '06? What options did they offer for memory?
