Update on the Asian Vision... It has departed Port Hueneme. And I assume it's heading to Washington? Either way, it means our cars are unloaded!
Heck yeah it is! And glad she's back!

Here's the scoop: As of the end of business Saturday I had no news. I called and talked to the sales manager and he in turn talked to my MA who in turn called me back. My biggest issue was that my 2001 Jeep Wrangler is due to roll over 100,000 and I have not been driving it to be sure that it didn't go over. I'm disabled and don't go out much so this hasn't been a problem. Now that it's taking so long something needed to be said as I feel like I'm a hostage to something I don't have. I was assured that the Aero Kit and Pumpkinhead are in the body shop getting the AK painted and it will be installed by Monday or Tuesday as will as the Strut Tower Brace (fingers crossed). I can drive my Jeep as normal and the milage will not count against the trade in. I'm practically giving that to them as it is. So a long story short, I should have Pumpkinhead home by Tuesday but I'm not holding my breath.

How much longer do you have to wait? I debated pretty much up to the day I placed my order over Chili Red vs. Spice Orange. In the end it came down to the interior options and the fact that I've driven a red & black car for the last 12 years. But I love the color combination you came up with and can't wait to see it in it's final form.

Punkin is on the Dover Highway, scheduled for the Brunswick docks on D-Day (June 6). Anybody else on Dover? If Brunswick weren't so far from Atlanta, we'd hop in Flipper to see if we could see them off-load Punkin from the boat...
Assuming two days in the VDC and 1 day on the truck to Global Imports and 1 day prep at Global, might put Punkin in the garage next to Flipper on 6/11. More realistic estimate though is 13-June.
Congrats to all those who are enjoying their cars (2Miniacs and fatboy97, "y'alls" Lightning Blues look great)!

Let me get this straight, while your daughter is on deployment, to make sure HER car stays new, you went gallivanting around to the tune of 1,400 miles? I know, you were just getting it through the break in period for her.
As a veteran myself I thank her for her service!!!

Then it will probably sit at the pier for a week before it's loaded on a ship... then about 10-14 days on a ship depending on where on the east coast it will be offloaded. You should check out How to Track your MINI: Revised, Expanded and Updated sticky thread at the top of the 1st Gear forum... lots of great info on tracking your MINI on a ship and more.
