When I ordered my mini (currently on the Asian Vision which is due into CA on August 4th incidentally) I didn't realize the Justa's no longer come with fog lights by default (grrrrr). I've looked and looked but can't find any owner photos for 2016's yet. Also, it'd be nice to confirm without a doubt that there is no EPA hold up.
No EPA hold-up, thankfully. Don't think you will see online inventory for a while yet since they are still trying to clear 2015's from inventory.

Nice! Hope to see you all at Mickey and MINI this year in September!

I have a 2016 sitting at the Baltimore VPC right now.

Arrived in port on 26/27th, went to VPC on the 28th. My MA claimed not to have an ETA on it, ASK-MINI says schedule release is 8-12.

I can corroborate via my dealership that MINIUSA has been holding the MY16's until a certain date when they decided to begin selling 2016's. Glad to see that date is coming up soon. Good luck guys!

I'm actually thinking I should order a stubby antenna, since they're apparently going to take it off when they wrap the roof....
