It's sad when I know where my MINI is better than my MA. He just texted me letting me know that my MINI is at the port (Brunswick) and that it was on the Oregon Highway. The ship is still between Baltimore and Georgia! It hasn't even made it to GA yet. Then he told me it will take about 6 business days for my MINI to be transported from GA to Dallas!? Wth!?
That is crazy. At least your MA has called you and let you know something. Mine has not called me since January when I ordered it. I had to call end of February 2015 and speak to the sales manager to find out my production number. The MA is useless. Kinda don't want him to get the sale...
Well I got two chances my car will get on a ship this weekend eaither the Don Juan or the California Highway If thats the case I will probably be getting it on the 22nd or 23rd of April ....
Those who have their MINIs en route to the dealership.. What was the wait time for it to be loaded onto the carrier after clearing the VDC?
Mine is heading to the dealer tomorrow. It arrived in the port of New York on 3/28, but the VDC is closed on the weekends so everything probably took an extra day or two.
I'm hoping it makes it to my dealer by next Saturday! I'm off all next weekend. I probably shouldn't get my hopes up. My MA said it probably takes 6 business days to get from Georgia to Dallas. That seems a little farfetched.
Woot woot! Do you know if the VDC works on weekends?
Unfortunately, I don't think so. I was searching on the Georgia port authority website for Brunswick, which looks like they are closed on the weekends I think. I was even looking for live web cam in case we can see the ship come in, but they only have live cams for the savannah port.

Congrats! Why not pick it up sooner?? Please post pics when you get it!
Thanks! It will take a day or two to be ready, but my MA is off on Wednesday. Also, it's 30 miles away. This is actually going to be my wife's DD, and she is off all week due to Spring Break. The suspense is really killing her. Pics will be posted.
