the final stretch! i'm hoping it doesn't have a long stay at the VDC. i'm just in upstate NY, so it can't take more than a day to get here once it leaves Jersey City.

 

For What it's worth, somewhere on the Tortugas is a Laser Blue/Black Clubman S that should be hoping off in NY. Only down side is I'll be in Miami when my Clubbie arrives at the dealers lot. Wouldn't ya know it!

 

Sounds like you need to make a trip home

 

I agree! If it weren't for it being a convention I'd sure pack it in and head back. It'll wait, just not too sure I CAN!!!

 

I can't say if I had a choice of either the Dentist for a Root Canal or a Convention that it would be an easy choice.....

 

Looks like the Turtle got delayed getting to Georgia by 2 days

 

It appears the Turtle has arrived and left NY so my Clubman should be on American soli by now! Hooray! Hopefully, for oor MINI's headed south, maybe the Tortuga can pick up a favorable southerly breeze!

 

Good for you We are the last stop in Brunswick GA and the final destination is Orlando Florida.....the weeks are just dragging by waiting

 

The turtle has left New York and on its way to Baltimore due at port on 10/26 the off to Charlston due on 10/29 then off tp its last stop Brunswick on 10/30....

 

Man dude, you must me dying right now!!!! Well, just a few more days.... Btw, your avatar is awesome!! Animal House is one of the best movies EVER.

 

Dying is an understatement.....I am also sitting on a ton of parts to install, can't take it

 

Yeah, I forgot that you hae the JCW aero already painted for your Mini... What else do you have already?

 

Hey RedBull, we're heading to Miami for our convention. I bet you get your MINI before I do. Where are you at in FL?

 

AHHH the parts list:
JCW Aero Kit all apinted and all the arched and front spoiler are painted to a glass finish
H&R Coilovers
Alta intake
Alta Red Boost tube and inlet tube
M7 Carbon Fiber Shift ball
Boost Gauge
Carbon fiber mirrors, rear handle/front scoop
M7 Front mesh grills
Alta Strut plates
Rear sway bar
4" stubby antena
Painting the wheels black when it gets here

 

I am 10 miles south of Daytona Beach....should get my Mini November 3rd. We are leaving for SEMA on the 4th...I am hoping it will be in the garage before I leave

 

Sounds like a plan! Hopefully that'll work for ya. I'll call my MA in the morning and see what the ETA for my Clubbie might be. Just wondering if Gizmo will be here before I get back. Charleston to Florida should be closer than NY/NJ to SE VA. Good luck!

 

The turtle is on its wat to Charlston...due in port on 10/29 and then off to its final stop in Brunswick GA....thats my stop....UGH.

 

The Turtle is on its way to its last stop in Brunswick Georgia...that is where my Mini is headed. Will be in port in the afternoon......Now I have to figure out a way to track the truck its on Is that possible?????

 

Good luck! Mine has been at the NJ VDC since the 24th! I'm getting a little anxious! Sure would like to see my car. My MA said it can take up to 10 days to get in scheduled on a truck. Anyone else know this to be close?

 

WOW...thats a long time..my MA told me is about a 5 days wait to get transport on the truck to the dealer. I am sure its diffrent in every area...I am hoping to pick up mine today or Tuesday

 

Make that two of us. However, as far as anyone (OL, the dealer MA, The Amazing Kreskin) can tell me, my car is still "en route". I know it was on the Tortugas. I know it was discharged at 10:00 AM on Oct. 24. Beyond that it is a black hole of information. Ten days with no update is a bit of a p***er, especially when I have to travel on business next Sunday. I was hoping to take the new Mini up to Pittsburgh, but now who knows.....

 

Our car is at the VDC waiting to get loaded for delivery to our dealer....getting fustrated because until now I had a good handle where our car was and when it was gettingto its next destination....was hoping to pick it up today but its not looking that way and were off to SEMA in the morning
