As of yesterday, my MA said it should be loaded on a truck this week and here by the 16th. With 2 days of make ready (sport stripes, tint, etc), I should have it next week.

Good luck all!

Your stripes go on at the dealer? Mine apparently went on at the factory. Just curious, I was going to have my dealer not install them if they were a dealer item.

The standard bonnet stripes go on at the factory. I ordered the sports stripes. I ordered a PW/B and the standard bonnet stripes have a small white outline that doesn't match the body color, so I opted for the black sports stripes. My understanding is that all sport stripes are dealer installed.

My car should be at the dealer Saturday, but it will be Tuesday before I can pick it up. At least the end is in sight!

Got an email from my MA today that my MINI is at the dealership. It will be serviced Monday and I'm picking it up Tuesday afternoon!

So, did it take 6 weeks from order date to delivery?

We are counting the weeks and soon the days...

I actually ordered it the Saturday before Memorial Day, so I really started counting the following Tuesday. Based on that, I'll be picking it up 7 weeks later. I think it could have been 6 weeks. It took longer that I expected to get from Charleston to Oklahoma.

Ditto! Glamor shots to come later. I didn't think I'd have trouble keeping it under 4500 rpm for the break-in period, but it's tougher than it seems.
