Ha, so I'm doing the math.. MCT's was released on the 7th and arrived at the dealer on the 9th and was going from Brunswick, GA to West Palm Beach..

Mine is supposed to be released on the 12th (hopefully before!) and is going from Baltimore, MD to Pittsburgh which is much closer, distance wise..

Trying to suppress my excitement, but I might just get to drive my new MINI this weekend!

My dealer says my car is "invoiced". Does anyone know what that means? He seems to know less than I do. I know my car landed at VPC more than a week ago.

I am so close, yet so far.

Truck with my car arrived at the dealership last night, after hours. While the driver was sleeping, a pipe burst and the road was closed. The truck is stuck until this afternoon, can't unload until they re-open the road. It's a block from the dealership.

I'm having lights and the tuning kit installed, so it's still needs a couple of days before I can take delivery... MA is telling me it's probably going to be NEXT Thursday.

&*#$ing thing has been in the country since the 27th.. so frustrating!

SuperMini! That's a great looking car right there. Does he have the guts/cash to paint all the black plastic parts red to match? I've dreamed of doing it to mine but it could be too much red in my case.
