My car is at the NY/NJ VDC.

Let me know if your JCW gets out of the VDC please -- PM me when it happens, or PM me if it gets delated.
Will do...the car got discharged from the ship today...so the clock starts today I guess.

I just tried to call someone up there in Mini,He's traveling,I am going to call the owner of my dealer to if they have any further info,this has been goin on for over three months now.I unfortunately bought a bunch of mods for the convertible that the dealer was nicest enough to take off my hands...by the way he has a JCW leather dash that I had them match the sidewalk color leather in the stiching...really pretty and unique,he also has my hood stripes matching the leather,fortunately the Hamann wheels I bought fit the new car...As I was plunking away Shep Nelson,the General Sales manager at Alexander called me back,he still has nothing to report and he been direct contact with the corporate people...I had caused a whole uproar about this 2 months ago through some contacts I had with BMW and it supposedly was going to light a fire under something,as you can tell it has done nothing...good luck with this ,I know how frustrating it must be...Take care

Have you thought of taking a trip to the VDC? Maybe someone asked that already.

I am sure you will see alot of 07-8 convertible JCW's with nowhere to go....I have been told they are still working on the software??
I wish you good luck with these clowns,If my guys tell me anything ,I will post it

In my case I am going to wait for the new model,which I hope will be as good if not better than my new coupe which is just to much fun
