So, my advice?! Not that you asked or anything, but call your MA and ask for a code.
Best of luck- Vivi

Status Codes
That's totally bizarre... I was at Mini of Nashville the other day and my MA not only gave me the code but showed me the computer screen with my status and the status of 4 other clubbies coming in at the same time...
So, my advice?! Not that you asked or anything, but call your MA and ask for a code.

All you guys are so lucky. Adele hasnt even been put into production. I dont start until Saturday. Bah. I am getting all jealous and ansy.
Tomorrow I am going to succumb to the Pipe and call the gud ole hotline. I need my fix. I need to feel like I did when i saw MOL change to production status. Cant remember when I have been so exilerated.
But I did talk to AC today about my custom stickers I want on her. Oh how she is going to love me when I get her all dressed up. She is going to be one pimp ride. Just hard to believe I am going to spend almost 1k on stickers and install but at least i know they will be done professionally by AC themselves.
And Vivi dont worry about all that stuff Ill save you a hot seat down under if you like. Its sortof a bonus being born without a soul (ginger) because I just get to enjoy the ride.
Im in the Coast Guard even though I am aviation and i want to see my boat come in from the air but I am one station to far south to have Port Heuneme in my area of responsibilty. But it sure would be cool.
Well back to driving myself nuts knowing that I still have over a month until I see my new babe.

So are some people actually getting the crackline reps to give them codes? I've only called about 10 times this week (mild addiction?), but always get the same story: no codes, just the same information thats on the automated system, which is nothing more than the scheduled finish date of 9/19/08.

I just got off the phone with a very helpful BMW person on the crackline. She told me that my mini is at the port of exit waiting for a ship to sail on!! She was awesome, even mentioned the forum and asked me what color my car was and if I had named it yet. No name yet, but I am very encouraged. I hope I don't get put on a K-line, I want to track this sucker!

Booked on Ship!!
Hi fellow 38’ers. I’m finally able to post. I have been following the thread for about a week or so. Nice to know there are many MiNiac’s out there! In the hopes of helping others with their time frame, here are my personal tracking dates:
Arrival in NY 9/28, then on to Baltimore, MD, Charleston, SC, and Brunswick, GA. Yahoo!!!
2009 PW/Blk MC with premium pkg., sport seats, etc...
- Approx. 2 weeks after order, became a Week 38 production.
- Called automated ASKmini Sept. 10 - “vehicle scheduled for production, estimated completion Sept. 16” (The OL still had “on order” for 24hrs after that but then switched to “scheduled for production” with a vin #).
- Later that day I talked to a live person at Crackpipe and it was “in production” with estimated completion of Sept. 16.
- Sept. 16 – spoke with live person at Crackpipe who wouldn’t share any codes but did say that my Mini was “loaded onto the truck”. I’m guessing it was actually completed on Monday?? Never did get any details about “body shop”, “paint shop”, etc… the automated system always said “in production”.
- Sept. 17 – called automated AskMini and it stated that it was “being transported”. BTW, OL still says “scheduled for production” errr….
- I’ve been plugging my Vin# into the WW site since 9/15. This morning 9/18 it showed up as “booked on the Don Quijote”!!!!! The OL just switched to being transported.

1st call, told it would be a week 38 beginning on 9/15. 2nd call told it began production on 9/13 and should be on the assembly line on 9/20 but that this date could be off by 24 to 48 hours and that it could be finished either the 22nd or 23rd.
Even though I've been through this whole thing before, it's still addictive.
P.S.And I apologize for joining the group so far into the waiting game, I've been keeping a low profile.

Congrats, minimich.
I will be traveling with you. I found out this morning (after plugging my VIN into the WW cargo site since yesterday) that I am booked on the Don Q as well. I'm hoping for a window seat and for smooth sailing. Let's make sure there's plenty of room for the rest of the 38ers and any 37ers still left on the docks.

Congrats y'all. Looks like we will miss the Don Quijote. I'm guessing that they are loading the Brunswick cars first, Charleston cars second, then the Baltimore cars, and finally the N.Y. cars. Then, they would unload in reverse order. What do you think? We're going to Charleston, so I'm hoping for the next ride, The Patriot. Smoooooth Sailing mates!

I don't think the Don Q. is expected in Southhampton until tomorrow 9/19 with the same day departure. I think we are just "booked" at this point, not loaded, so there is still time...
