I'm waiting for my spice orange S Clubman to arrive in the states. I got the status update that he's adjusting to his sea wheels. I went with the silver roof and bonnet stripes and I guess the dealer will add the blackjack to my sunroof when the car arrives. I feel like a kid waiting for Santa.

ororo,
Congratulations on your new sleigh! I know what you mean about Santa. Mine touched down on American soil in Baltimore yesterday.. They will be installing my JCW options at the VDC near the port before it goes to the dealer for the finishing touches. The time between ordering and now went reletively quick compaired to what the wait will feel like knowing it's actually here but not yet in Ohio.

I'm in central Illinois. I ordered my Mini on April 14th. I chose the hot chocolate lounge leather with hot chocolate door panels and the English oak dash, sunroof, cold weather package, sport package, Harman Kardon. I wanted a white top and mirrors but I couldn't get that so I went with silver. Should look great with the blackjack on the sunroof. My Mini rep says my car will be at the dealership the week of the 21st. I'm hoping to drive up to Naperville (Chicago area) to get the car on the 26th.

When you see your VIN show up in the MINI Owners Lounge tracking or get it from your MA, you can follow this link and put the VIN in the far right box to do a search. This will tell you what ship it's going to be on, it's departure date and tentative arrival date here in the states. You can also hit the world map tab and track it on it's way here. There will be a couple days of it being a ghost as it moves through areas to far from shore to be tracked. Have fun with it. I was watching the TEXAS from the time Pumpkinhead was loaded untill it arrived in Baltimore.

Lol, Justa, I like that. Mine is an S. I didn't get any sweet JCW options. One silly little thing I opted for was white turn signal indicators. I have no idea why I thought I needed those. I do like how it looks with the silver bonnet stripes.
You must be bouncing off the walls waiting for your car to reach the dealer!!

I'm bouncing off the walls alright. I've been driving my 2001 Jeep Wrangler (manual) for the past 11 years, 6 of those with a bad clutch leg. In getting this I thought I would try to go all out and still have the automatic. At least it has the somewhat manual option.
On the topic of the white turn signal indicators, they just plain look better.

Thanks PMKNHD
He was originally going to be a Laguna Green also, but what the heck!!!
I'm happy at how he looks now.
When is yours scheduled to arrive?
(The boat that carried SriRacha stopped at the Baltimore port and reached the Brunswick port 3 days later. Then it took another 8 days to arrive at the MINI dealer in Houston, TX.)

I'm crossing my fingers that it will be about a week.
It's very hard to tell for sure, the owners lounge is usually updating behind the fact so it could be sooner than later. I placed my order on April 11th so I won't complain either way. All it has to do is make the trek to the dealer now. Going from Baltimore to Ohio is no long trip so it shouldn't be long now.

They usually have a more accurate estimated date than the MINIUSA website.
My Estimated Delivery Date on the website also bounced back and forth twice but the sales guy was definitely more accurate.
Totally understand your feeling though
