WOW... the black sure looks nice!! Congrats!!
My black/silver finally made it to the port. Looks like the next cruise to California will be October 11 via the Asian Vision with arrival to the VDC November 2. Going to be a long month, but as they say....half the fun is in the anticipation!

Finally got a call from the Sales Manger today (order and deposit taken on 27 July!). He says, MINI USA finally "forced" a build number. He also said it could be built in the "next few days." I will believe that when I see it. Entered the build number on the spreadsheet.

Mine is finally in production...
Just heard from my MA today that mine is in production he even sent me the VIN as proof. Very excited!!! I was originally scheduled for week 36 but am happy it is underway. It feels real again and I hope to have it in 3 to 4 weeks. I am east coast in Atlanta so should be faster delivery (fingers crossed). Hopefully the rest of us that have been delayed get moving again.

Great to hear that a bunch of you are getting traction on your production!
Good looking order lil' red
I am waiting for the Asian King ship to make appearance on Marine Traffic again soon. Due into Panama on the 10th. Shoud be about 2/3rd of the way to there now as its last tracking point was leaving the Celtic Sea 6d, 11h 54min 34s ago heh. Then its the 9 day wait to get through the canal and up to Port Hueneme VDC. Long process but should be very worthwhile.

I spotted my ship on a friday lurking outside the panama canal. The next day when I looked it was through and heading north. The 11th is the anticipated landing date at PH. Sure would be nice if it was a day early. Last time through this process both of our cars were a day late. Maybe the tide has changed.

My boat's out of radio range!
Well the ELEKTRA is on it's way to New York, and I've been watching it slowly move along on the AIS tracking site (which is quite excellent by the way!)
http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/dat...a=A&level0=200
it went out of range on the 3rd, and probably won't be heard from 'til it gets closer! I'd like to say the suspense ISN'T killing me, but it IS!!
I'm keeping myself occupied making coupe playlists and trying to figure out exactly what I want my front GB plate to say. My current MCS is named "grey matter" since it's dark grey, but I haven't nailed down the coupe's name yet!
Oh well, more to keep me distracted!!
