Integrity hasnt been updated on sailwx.info, but I've kept an eye on her between the AISlive tracker site and the voyage schedule on the WW site...

She's currently at the port of Baltimore - in NY/NJ last weekend, should be in Charleston this coming weekend.

Yea, congrats to Odas and Chopper!!!!

I'm still waiting for some kind of word from my dealer... I guess
MINI is on the road from Charleston to Minneapolis,
stop-over in Havanna?????

Anyway, I haven't worked out how I'm financing yet.

Enjoy your new rides!

Sir Mini

PS- I really don't want to pay for it until August....

whiteandgold,
dont think so... most of us in here (non-west coast at least) got on the Emden/Manon/etc that arrived last weekend, or on the Integrity, scheduled to get to SC this weekend...

could be wrong, though - just going by what we hear from the vocal ones

Yes: anthra-cute, of course! Sadly that option was only available for an instant on the day we ordered . . . .

(You know, you have to give a guy a break. I'm supposed to be dealing with these final eons before accepting delivery on an MCS and you expect me to be able to spell too?)

Just ribbing you a bit. I'm just loopy in the head knowing that I can pick my MCS up in about.... 16.5 hours.

I'm a member of a Euro-board gaming group (weird hobby I know), and we've got a session tonight so that should keep my mind off of the waiting for the pickup tomorrow am. I'm chomping at the bit so I imagine Odas is too.

Odas, you're on for tomorrow at 9 too right?

Well, we were on for this morning, but ran into a little snag yesterday when I was wrapping up the financing end. Seems that the Manufacturer's Statement of Origin (essentially the initial title on the vehicle) hasn't made it to MINI of Nashville yet. The MCS was delivered to them on the morning of 6JUL, so it has been prepared and is happily residing in the showroom, but apparently this document--which has to be the hardcopy original--comes by slower means! Basically, we are in a holding pattern until it shows up. Definitely disappointing at the brink of entering MCSdom! But, on the bright side, Odie will doubtlessly enjoy the glamor of the showroom and will encourage many an order for a CR/B, etc. Lucky for us that we are 100 miles from Nashville so we won't have to see all those CR/B's showing up all over the place in a few weeks!

We'll get him sooner or later (okay, so later it is), but I was hoping to have most of today and Sunday to get a good MCS fix before returning to work on Monday. Picking him up during the week will not allow nearly enough motoring time!
