Ordered my 2006 BRG Mini a week and a half ago.

Order Date from the dealer 9/25/2006

And now I am looking up just about every forum and website that has to do with Mini's.

The online monitoring of the production status says scheduled for production which make me think it will be built this week and hope fully set on a ship for the states next week.

Welcome to NAM, but it might take longer than expected though. The wait takes a bit of time, but its well worth it!

Just goto edit your signature, then click the little icon that looks like this and put this url in https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...0/image016.jpg

BTW, BRG myself. What options did you go with?

The easiest way to do it is to go to this forum: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=71218

Then, right click and save the pictures you want to your computer...Upload them to your gallery, and then insert them into your signature line!

From my experience the online status was never correct. It even said in transit even after MIB was delivered! Please call 1866ASKMINI and give them your order number or VIN Number to find out the true status of your MINI.

Just find a BRG logo you like and then right click on it to save it to the hard drive of the computer you are using. Then upload that pix to your photo gallery here on nam. Then navagate to that photo in your gallery and then right click on it to get the URL and type that URL into your signature with brackets surrounding img and then end with brackets surrounding /img

Example: "[img]"url of your photo"[/img]". Just remove the quotes and type in the exact url to get it to work

You can order real ones to stick on something from Kewl Auto Art, one of the vendors on NAM. Just got mine, now I need to find a fitting partner for it, then they go on the back side of my rear headrests.

Just Called Ask-Mini and it is currently being painted. That's pretty quick. Customer service said it would be another 3 days in production, another week to get on a boat and then the travel time.

I thought I could wait but once the thing is ordered it become harder with each passing day.
