Looks like the Tirranna made good time early this morning, as we are past the Washington DC turn off heading for Baltimore. We should be there by about 09:00 this morning, it appears. And get this, we will pass the Athens Highway, which Marron is on, that is ChefTyGuy's roadster is on. They'll be able to wave at each other as the pass in about half an hour or so. Interesting. We should be unloaded by afternoon, it looks like and who knows, maybe on it's way to Illinois by late tomorrow.

Spice Orange with a White roof and white bonnet stripes looks great. Love the combo and really pops as a color. Congrats.

Finally have an update in the MINI Owners Lounge this morning "At Distribution Center". Hopefully it won't be long before my MINI is on it's way to Texas! Getting closer.

Just confirmed by my MA ... my MINI is on the California Highway. It's in the abyss right now; untrackable. But, he's claiming she's due into Brunswick on or about the 27th, but the K-Line schedule shows a due date into Brunswick around the 31st. Not sure if the system has been updated to reflect any priority changes in the ship's routes or what ... but at least I know what ship she's on and that's exciting.

Is this unusually rapid movement?
I ordered on Sat 3/16. MA gave me the Prod number and VIN on Tuesday 3/19. I got in to the owners lounge on Wed 3/20.
I just called Ask Mini and they told me Production started Monday 3/18.
Holy cow I was not expecting things to happen this fast, or is it too good to be true? Having the VIN gives me some level of confidence.

Post up a pick of what your MINI is going to look like, kind of the initiation around here or better yet, put it in your signature. Oh, and welcome!

Hi everyone, this is my first post and my first MINI! I’m graduating college so this consequently also my first new car.
My MINI finished production yesterday and is waiting to set sail to Baltimore. Is there anyone who received theirs yet that can comment on how long the wait was after production was finished?
Here’s pictures!

Congrats! Me too!!! My ship is now showing arriving the 21st instead of the 20th, but hopefully it won't spend too much time at the VDC before the hour or so journey to the dealer. I'm having a couple of things installed, so I'm hoping and crossing fingers that I'll be in her by Saturday or Sunday at the latest.
This has been the longest wait of my life besides my pregnancy 20 years ago! But much like the arrival of my precious son, I'm sure the wait will be so well worth it!
Hang in there everyone!!
Cheers!
Kim

Tex6, we'll be picking up, hopefully that is, one day apart, but just 1200 miles apart. My dealer is in Schaumburg, Illinois, where I got my first Mini. Great MA, the main reason that I went back to her.
My daughter asked me last night when she can come and run your Mini thru it's paces?

Well, our MINI came home today, got to meet her big brother for the first time, they seem to get along well...
Its great having 2 cars with hoodscoops in the family
