My date is Dec. 12 too, and I'm in Ga in your area if you're from Chapel Hill, NC, we'll probably be on the same boat!

You're not going by owners lounge are you??
Are you listed as "on order" when you check with 866-ASK-MINI?

I am in week 50 as well. MCS, white, LSD, cruise, that's it. Live in Portland, OR, ordered through South Bay. Local dealers had a 12 month wait.

Same reason, same dealer here. At this time I'll need to have mine shipped to Portland. Are you planning on driving or shipping to Portland? Has your MA given you any kind of ETA? I was told about Feb 1. We should compare notes from time to time.

Well, sold the Miata tonight. More downpayment.
The guy got a great deal, but I negotiated some co-drivers after it's FIed.

My latest update....
My MINI now shows at Owners Lounge as scheduled for production and has a VIN #
Guess I'll wait couple more days to call ASK-MINI again to see where my MC is in production...

I'll most likely have it shipped. Same approximate delivery time, end of January/early February. Time to get started selling the STI!

actually, that is by the owner's lounge. I didn't realize the online information wasn't up-to-date. I'll try the dial-up thing tommorrow.
thanks.

So what's new for today in the Week 50ers?
I think we have 5 confirmed so far & 1 needs to ASK-MINI?
So what parts are waiting at your place?
Mine: None
Gonna give it 6 months of bone stockness before I do anything

I might get a Whalen for Xmas/Birthday. But I won't plan on on much else for a couple months except for wheels. (The X-Lights will probably get reshod with R compounds.)

3 minor add ons for me.....
Bonnet stripes...
Panther leather shifter...
Foot rest.....
Thats it, really don't plan a lot of mods this is just a fun daily driver/commuter for me for the most part. I do have a January birthday coming up so I plan to ask the wife for the Euro parcel shelf....

The Parcel shelf is what is tempting me a lot...would be a nice way to route the aux-out and use it with my W800i
