I picked up my baby yesterday (10/29) afternoon from Mini North Scottsdale. It came over on Isolde and was delivered to the dealership on 10/28. I am sooo happy to have it here!

when I read this, Im convinced Isolde pulled a stealth early arrival into PH, prob got there thurs or fri last week, how else could yr car have gotten to you so fast?? any way CONGRATS and post a photo when U get a chance!

You know, I checked the web tracking on Sunday afternoon and it hadn't changed...I just think that MINI is (finally?) getting their act together when it comes to getting the cars from the port to the dealer.

According to WW's and PH's website, Isolde was scheduled to arrive on 10/26. I have heard that depending on the dealerships sales, if they are high on the list, they get theirs sooner. I know that Mini North Scottsdale had an extremely good month of sales for September, so maybe that explains it?

WW boats have arrived early in the past and failed to update the info, but then U didnt get yr cb and tint at the dealer so that made delivery faster. Anyway, beautiful MINI!!

Thank you! I decided not to get the cb and tint at the dealer because it was much cheaper (almost 1/2 off) elsewhere.
