Please advise. Will my car be made in August or September? MA at deposit time told me my car would be arriving end of September.

I am having it delivered to Mini of St. Louis in Clayton MO, don't know if anyone can give me an idea of which port it will come into based on that?

Things are really moving fast (knocking on wood). I called on 8/16 and they said my car was finished. Well today, on a whim, I went to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen site and entered my vin. It was received at the terminal in Southhamton on 8/16! It's booked on the Freedom to Charleston, SC. It's due to arrive in Charleston on 9/3/04.

I got awesome news today! My car arrived at the dealer today 3 days ahead of schedule all alone no others were delivered with it(the electric blue next to her was a used '02 that had only 3500 miles on it!!!!), very excited!! My MA called me and I left work to go take some photos of it and come to find out it has the NEW cupholder!!!:smile: I do not think it is very functional but it looks a bit nicer than the previous one. I also was very pleased with my choice of the grey leatherette, it is simply amazing by far a great choice b/c it is 2-tone like the space cloth seats but not cloth and you cannot tell it is not leather, and I have had cars with fine leather it is a real close call. Hyper Blue is much better in real life than any pictures on the web as of yet, I took some that really look good so hopefully it will give people a better judge of the color.:smile: I am just so excited, I am leaving for Hawaii in the morning which is also exciting but I can't wait to get to drive the MINI. I started it up and today and the exhaust is noticibly louder and pops on decceleration, so great! Hope this is making everyone excited b/c it truly is a great car and good luck to everyone. ( I will attempt to post some pictures but I am not sure how to.....)

Great News!!
I called the automated system tonight (11:30pm MST) and was told my car is IN TRANSIT!! woo hoo!!! every second I sit here my MINI is inching closer and closer. So all you West Coasters waiting for a ship, better check on your status, we may all be on the same boat. If you find anything about the ship let us know.

The Isolde is supposed to dock tomorrow with my Mini aboard, and the Miniusa site shows an EDD of 8/24. Now it must take more than that to have the car ready to pick up. I've heard some people complain that it took the dealer almost a week to prep the car! Is that the estimated date of delivery to the customer or the dealer?
