This tiny little crumb of information we get every few days is just torture. I think it would better better if I had no updates at all.
Good news though that my credit union quoted me a 5.3% interest rate on the loan. That's much better than mini FS quoted. Yay! more gas money

4. more. weeks.
The delays on the delivery are getting very frustrating especially when week 7 and 8 people are getting their cars already. I think I'll sign off for a while and not try and track this car anymore otherwise I'll end up cancelling the whole thing.

**Correction - The Mini OL is back to showing 16Mar as Estimated Delivery Date. Exit reality and back to the fantasy.***

No change to mini ol or ask mini. Still says waiting at port but my MA says April. I'm suprised that it takes a month to get from VPC to dealer when east coast people go from ordering to dealer in the same amount of time.
Timeline so far if I remembered correctly

Production number assigned 1/25/06
Production completed around 2/6/06
Left port 2/17/06
Arrived Port Hueneme 3/10/06
Expected delivery per MA 4/1/06
wait: 27 weeks

Mini OL finally changed to at VDC with estimated delivery of 3/20/06. I emailed my MA and still wont change his date of april. He's a nice guy but he must be really conservative about dates or something in case there is any delay.
So I am hoping that I'll be able to pick it up the weekend of the 25th.
Well, that's a little better
