Yeah I want the CF scoop,mirrors and handle also. But, I just skimmed by being able to buy the car so I am going to have to wait a few months to recover financially to start buying cool stuff for it. Hey, I thought when you bought the Camden you had this special interior with it. I didn't think you could get black leather seats with it.

Are you on the west coast? If I am reading the shipping website correctly it appears the next ship is the Morning Cornet. It leaves on 12/4 and arrives at port Hueneme on 12/27.

You are right about the Camden having custom seats but I went to a dealer that had a Camden in stock to take look at the seats and I did not like them, they looked cheap. cheesy. Also too much black and white inside the car, I preferred leather for $500 more.

Yes I am on the West Coast- Los Angeles
Is the Morning Cornet a K-line ship?

No, it is a "Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics" (WW) ship. From what I gather from the track your mini post, the K-line doesn't go to the west coast (I could be wrong).

I searched the Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics website and found their current ship schedule and the only ship with a similar name was the Morning Calm, Is this the ship you are talking about?

I went by the mini dealership today and checked out the camden and also a very cool rally clubman. I really like how the headlight reflector is black on the camden. I am going to have to investigate what it would take to make mine like that.

Awesome! welcome. That sounds like it is going to be a sweet car. We should be aboard the Morning Cornet on Friday. That is if your port is NY.
