Hi ALL, WELL my MINI S ROADSTER CONVERTIBLE 2013 is home in the garage.
What A GREAT improvement over my MINI S Convertible, you no longer feel each bump in the road & the vehicle road noise is 35-45% less inside. It still handles the same on the back roads. THis is truley a great vehicle & yes I did get the $750. taken off the vehicle price.

 

Any clues how to post picture if you do not know picture URL?

 

Awesome! I know, my youngest daughter just rolls her eyes when I talk about my MINI. But watch who's going to be the first one wanting to drive her when we get home.

Cath...have you been assigned a ship. My car is in paint. Probably should go to assembly on 10/20. Looks like next ship out is 10/24---Topeka.

 

I don't have shipping info yet, nope. I'm crossing my fingers my car is on the Topeka though!

 

Here you go, my Roadster!!!
thanks for the posting help!!

 

Its crazy, I feel like I've seen 3-4 generations of MINI owners come and go while I've been waiting. OMG, my first post about me waiting is on page 34, we've burned through 60 pages lol

 

Did you get caught by the summer shutdown?

 

Yeah, and then I missed the boat by about 45 minutes. It was scheduled to be loaded but it was full so had to wait for the next one. But it is supposed to arrive in Cali tonight so maybe I will be off this forum by page 100 lol

 

Wow, beautiful ride. Happy Motoring.

 

I thought my wait was long. Hope you get your baby soon.

 

That's not bad uk. I still don't have mine, and it hit port Tue of last week. So you should be only less than 2 weeks behind me!

Soon my friend!

 

Yeah, what's the delay with yours ? I thought you were getting it yesterday? Or are you just delaying it to keep me company ?? Awww....

 

I delayed it to make you feel better .
My MA said that while it was supposed to arrive on the 16th, the carrier was delayed to the 19th. Today. We shall see.

 

Me neither. It got to port on Tuesday, was released to the carrier on Saturday and still hadn't made it to CO as of Thursday. :(

 

Just got an email from my MA. There is a carrier sitting outside the dealership right now.
I had no idea that they were enclosed carriers, how cool is that!

 

I think this is mine rolling off the carrier, woo Hoo!

Confirmed, it's mine

 

whoo hoo indeed!!

 

Another shot:

 

Very sharp!! How is it that you aren't there camping out ??

 

The photo looks 1000% nicer than the rendering. I bet it's even nicer in person

 

So cool! Woot! Woot!

 

I really was hoping that the chili red roof and mirrors would compliment the red Brembo brake calipers and the red accented hood stripes. Yup, it did!

 

Congrats on the imminent delivery! If you didn't know about the carriers, you might find this interesting: Inside The Port Hueneme Vehicle Distribution Center
