Any tips on finding out which ship the car will be on? ASK-MINI says the car is awaiting ship, live rep said they will not have the info, but MA might, and OL also indicates Coupe is awaiting ship. I have identified the names and schedules of upcoming ships, but I need to find out which one to follow. Any suggestions?

Step by Step guide here.
If it isn't on a WWL ship then it is on a KLine one. Probably won't know which ship it is on through the WWL tracking until the day it boards the ship. KLine ships will have to be checked through your MA at the dealership and he won't see it update for a few days after it leaves the port.

Congrats Cred and Jamesday24!
Looks like the Asian Vision carrying my coupe is accompanied by 468 other Mini vehicles. It looks like 12 we returned to the shipper :-(
Scheduled to depart Southampton at 12:59 GMT.

Happy to report some progress!
Although I did not hear from my MA, the OL now shows 'Enry II scheduled for production and 866-ASK-MINI says that he's currently in the body shop and expected completion tomorrow. Not sure if that is completion - completion or just from the body shop, but, I'll take it!

The Asian King in now heading towards the first set of locks in the Panama Canal. Our minis are leaving the Atlantic/Caribean behind. Say hello to the Pacific in a few hours. Sweeeet. Getting closer every day.

getting closer!
My ship arrived in Nova Scotia this morning. Should be in NY tomorrow (I hope!)
This is worse than the previous 3 months!!! Ahhh but it will certainly be worth the wait.
I found an incredibly awesome ship tracking site if you want to try something different than the one described in the "tracking your MINI" writeup.
Not sure if I put it in an earlier post or not - but here it is:

Just enter your ship name, and you'll see it on the map with a complete track of it's voyage so far. Pretty darn cool!!

PezRadar originally posted this info on my behalf, as I was keeping my Coupé order a secret from my friends over at Sunshine MINIs:
028. Mystery Buyer | MCS Coupé | LB/S | Stripes | 16" 6-star Twin Spokes | Carbon Black Checkered cloth, H/K Stereo, Xenon/White, Factory alarm.
Took delivery today. Been trolling this forum several times a day ever since I ordered back on August 6th, and it's been a real chore keeping quiet. Finally took delivery today & debuted my new MINI Coupé at a fortuitously timed Bay Area MINIs dinner meet. Feels good to be out of the closet, as it were.

Great looking car Bill, best the surprise was a good one to spring on them.
Happy to say that the Asian King has finnaly moved into the first lock at Gatun. About 9 hours later the ship should be on the right coast to make many West Coast people happy.

Wow! Bill is now my Sunshine MINIs Coupe buddy! Well done, man.
Didn't I say something to that effect at Mickey and MINI? I would have been right had your Coupe arrived in time.
