Hi Jenna. My VO just arrived to the Indianapolis dealer today. It is being prepped for delivery on Monday. Can't wait! The cars were just released from eastern port on 10/1/14. I'm surprised it's here this quickly...but pretty darn happy! --Badger
No word on my MCS-A. It has been sitting at distribution center down in So Cal. I ordered mine July 7th, built August 12th. Dealer said I have priority 1, whatever that means, but I bug him about once a week.
What is the status in your mini owner's lounge? I ordered mine on Jun 13rd, built on Jul 23rd, and arrived at the port on Aug 20th. But the status is still En Route and no ETA for delivery.
At Distribution Center, not ETA. Wish they could give us rough estimate. I had told my dealer that it would awesome to get it before my bday (Oct 23rd) and he was like, yeah shouldnt be a problem...thinking otherwise now.
MadMim, my birthday is tomorrow (October 11)! I thought I'd have my MCS-A by now. Grr!
I'll just exercise patience…
Wait!!! I just saw an estimated delivery date of 10/14 at the Owners' Lounge. I never had a published date before! Woohoo!!!!! Progress!!! What a great way to enter my birthday weekend. We'll forget today's botched, now rescheduled root canal for Monday. Thinking of my new car will cancel the pain that is gripping my face at the moment!
I'm going to pick up my VO MCS-M at my dealer this afternoon, my order was confirmed at the beginning of June. Can't wait!! I'll get to drive it for a week before I put on the winter wheels/tires.
Mine was built end of August and arrived at port 9/24 in Maryland. Just released to carrier today. MY OL status is still "en route"......supposed to be in Rochester on Wed. I am trying to not get too excited until it actually gets on the truck. That is supposed to happen on Monday.
2015 MCS Pepperwhite with pretty much everything except rear camera/park assist and alarm system. My first one!
I drove by last night and pressed my nose against the glass of that bright shiny showroom but I couldn't see my baby. Your day will come soon Vegbiker! Hold on to that hope.
cgingras.....what are you getting for winter tires/wheels?? Being in Rochester, NY they are imperative for me as well. I have always run Blizzaks and have loved them, but am looking for alternatives. My car has the 17" wheels coming as standard, so I am wondering what size snows to get. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!
I am taking delivery of my 2015 Cooper hardtop (midnight black, body color roof and mirrors) in about 10 HOURS!!! They open at 9am Saturday morning and that's when I'll be there. Ordered it on July 14th. It has been on the docks in New Jersey since the 3rd week of August. I'll post some pictures tomorrow afternoon.
Karbair.
You asked about winter tires. I absolutely love Firestone Winterforce tires. I had them on my 2006 and 2012 Cooper hardtops. Also on a 2 wheel drive Dodge Dakota. They are fantastic tires and very affordable compared to tires like Blizzaks. I live in Syracuse, NY and we get a lot of snow. I never had a problem with these tires, EVER.
My dealer will give me an actual and estimated day of arrival schedule for my MCS-A at the dealership by Monday. I'm in SoCal. Mine arrived at the Port on the last week of August. =(
My daughter picked up her Electric Blue MC yesterday (ordered 6/21).
My VO MC (ordered 6/27) is at the dealer but I can't get there to pick it up until 10/22. Gonna be a long 11 days!
Just checked my mini lounge today, I have an estimated arrival date for 13 October. Hope it holds true. Hope everyone gets theirs this coming week, as well.
Ordered mine 6/17. Estimated delivery 10/9. Spoke with my dealer here in Austin, said it should be here next week they received 15 yesterday but not mine, he thinks because mine was one of the first to be put on hold it my be near the middle of the distribution center.
I guess they have never heard of FIFO.
Ilk2bk I think we're in the same boat - or warehouse. Ordered mine 6/26. Others have arrived at dealer but not mine. Remember the last scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark? That's how I'm picturing my poor baby, waiting to be discovered way in the back by a bumbling bureaucrat.
Here is a link to a set of photos and videos of my f56 MC. I picked it up yesterday and can't wait to drive it again! I ordered it on 7/17, @ dealer on 10/9, delivered on 10/11. It's supposed to have black bonnet stripes, which will be fixed soon. I'll update you with some photos when that's finished. I can't wait to see more photos of your MINIS.
