All Aboard the Caribbean Highway, departed Southampton on September 12, 2008

My MA said I can take delivery as early as next Monday!! It helps that I'm not having anything installed at the VDC that might hold us up from getting on the truck right away. From my stalking of my dealer the past few weeks, they seem to be on a Saturday delivery schedule. I may have to sit in the lot across the street from the dealer and behind the PF Chang's to watch for the stork's arrival. Only trouble is when the cooks go on break, they give me funny "what are you doing here?" looks. So maybe I should leave the binoculars at home.

Oooo, I'm so jealous. I'm still waiting for an update from my MA...hoping to get it by the end of next week. Can't wait!!!! My boyfriend got me an early birthday present of some lovely MINI floor mats (carpet ones and rubber ones) and until I get my car, I guess I can just pet those and imagine that I'm in my new car.

My MA is MaryAnne Calhoun at Baron Mini and she hasn't called me yet. I'm hoping my car arrives on 10/4

He sounds like a great guy! The manager at my dealership gave me a CR MINI plush toy when I ordered to keep me company during the long wait. It's next to the TV, so I'm always looking at it and sighing. When I dust it, I think of the fun I'm going to have detailing the real thing!

Casey61 - just noticed you're in Ohio. By any chance are you getting Otis through Classic MINI in Mentor? Curious 'cause that's where I'm getting mine....would be fantastic if mine would be in the same time as yours!!!!

Otis is coming through Midwestern Mini in Dublin. Before I ordered, I contacted Classic and Cincinnati Mini looking for models that were on the lot. Waiting is not one of my strong suits, but I could not find what I was looking for and figured ordering would save me time in the long run. The folks at Classic seemed pretty cool, they were the fastest to respond to emails!

I posted this in the Week 36 thread, but I thought I'd celebrate here too -- my MINI should be at the dealer tomorrow!! The manager called to ask what time I could pick it up tomorrow (if it's ready to go) or Thursday. Yesterday my MA had said next Monday at the very earliest, so I was too stunned to give a coherent answer for a few moments. That truck must have been bookin' from SC. I knew that CR gives a MINI an extra 15 hp, but not that it would do the same for the truck it's riding on!

I can only hope for a similar one. Talked to a MA at the dealership this afternoon (mine had the day off); he said that it wouldn't even ship out of Charleston until Oct. 2. Then he said to add a week on to that....and that's when I can pick it up. I was disappointed to hear that because of all the great news you and others on the board have been having. Oh well - at least I don't have to wait TOO much longer.....

Who is yours?
If it was a she, that leaves it to one of two people. Mine is Liz.
Apparently, so I am told, that they have been sending me emails all along, but I have only got one of them. I am sure that they have a lot to worry about and my personal car is not their top concern.
Again good luck.

Hopefully that just makes the joy of getting it greater.
