Port of Entry for Milwaukee Bound MINI

I tried posting in first gear but no one seems to know. NYC or Charleston SC. Which would be the port of entry for a Milwaukee WI bound MINI?

I would say there's not a definite answer - I've ordered two MCS's into St. Louis, MO. The first one came into NY (NJ, I think) and the second one came into Charleston. It may have to do with the overall mix of the shipment and truck scheduling, etc.

Thanks; which did your 05 come through? Oh, and I'm not obsessing.

The '05 came through Charleston, but my '02 came through NJ.

Maybe it's based on color, in that case I would say you're looking at NJ because my '02 was CR/W

My 05 CR came into NJ, the dealer called me a day before the ship docked,and told me if I wanted to go and watch the MINI's being unloaded, I could go there. My sales receipt and VIN # would get me into the facility. Nice,huh? the dealer was Otto's MINI in West Chester, Pa. Good Luck with your new MINI HFM
