Bahahaha, well depending on where you are updating from......they don't update once they hit open water in the Atlantic. I only know this because......I set up my own personal account to track my SPECIFIC ship, through several ship trackers (including the official U.S. Coast Guard tracking system) and once they get off the coast of Spain they don't update till they get close to the coast of the U.S. a la Bermuda range. See.....I am a maniac.

The "apology" and "Bothering" them is pointing out in a very indirect way that you are being ignored.
The "Simple Question" is a setup that if they can't answer the "simple" question they must not be very good at their job.
I'd expect a great Sales Manager to get answer your question while an average one will simply hand it over the the MA that hasn't been doing their job anyways. (although they could be slammed and trying to get the MA to take responsibility but still another form of passing the responsibility instead of taking the bull by the horns per say and helping the customer).

Probably because if I say anything it will include murderous undertones directed at my MA......still can't get a hard delivery date from them....have to pay for the car even though it's not here because otherwise I will have to rewrite my loan...and he acts as if I'm bothering him for calling. GRRRR

Agree about the crickets as I've been on the site all day waiting for someone to say "Something" but the other half of the time I keep checking "Tack and Trace" to see if they have started booking any Minis yet, they have NOT. Dying here....BOOK our Minis so we all can all take a breath!
If my baby doesn't make one of the two boats this weekend I am changing me PICK UP DATE ETA TO "WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER"!
EDITED: REALLY!

I called my MA last week and asked what I needed to do about financing, and he basically told me don't worry about it at all till the car was going to be delivered. Now, they may be planning on trying to screw me on the .9 financing stuff, but they haven't tried that. I may lose my cool at that point.

I am not as far along as many of you guys but I am wondering about the earlier process that they are telling me. I have a production number and my MA says I am set for first week in March production but they sometimes move up once it is marked customer sold. OL says ordered but no date set for production. Ask mini live says set for production but no start date. I asked about the March 1st start with Ask Mini and they say based on the status they have it may have already started but the system has not updated or it will be starting very soon. Anyone have a similar story? I would guess my MA is the most accurate? Is that usually the case?

To heck with the cars... Seriously is everything ok? Your well being is more important than the discussion about MINIs...

The stages of ordering a Mini:
1. Excitement knowing you can track it all the way thru.
2. Frustration in taking forever to get a production number.
3. Anger in getting a VIN and production number but finding out OL is worthless.
4. Increased anger in the lack of information on it's whereabouts, daily.
5. Apathy when you reside yourself that one day it may get onto a boat.
6. Emotional void, I'm at this stage in ordering mine so I have to wait and establish the new feelings as they develop.

Yep, you took one of thier slots . Now they getting parts together about 5 or so days. Then 1+days to build. Then they need to test and off you go to port. Might want to call ask mini and talk to live person and see if they have a production start day for you. Good Luck Lots o popcorn around this thread.
now its the hurry up and wait game..
#4893

Maybe you should just innocently show up at dealer and see how things are progressing

I know. I've been quiet too. I was finding that more time was being spent on hear obsessing about the car I didn't have than the time I was spending on work. Uh-OH!!!
Not to mention the money I was spending on buying stuff.
Today 3 new MINI baseball caps arrived, a MINI coffee cup, my new emblems soi could send them off to get blinged, My new Eurpoean front license plate and 4 New MINI badges.
My husband is going to kill me!!! I'll have to stay in the MINI when she gets here, I know he won't do anything to me while I'm in it because he won't want to damage the goods. bahahahahahahaha
