Reading that to get the new full $7500 tax credit the car has to be assembled in the USA. Say this bill goes into effect by January…will that mean we no longer qualify for any credit on our SEs?

This is probably a topic for a different thread so you get more visibility - it's not related to us Quality Checkers specifically.
 
So - checking in to see who all had made it on a ship so far - I am still at port but not entirely clear on the process - thinking my car will ship to Galveston on 8/2? Or maybe on 8/1 on the Horizon Highway?

I’m still in port. I’ve not done the research, but I’m assuming that it will ship to NJ (I’m in CT), which I’m hoping gives it a number of shipping options.
 
All 42 times I've checked today, still At The Port.

I've seen mentions that the online status lags by a couple of days at this stage, but who knows. I might call ASK MINI today to see if they show anything.

Unrelated but sort of related, someone deleted a cell of info from my entry in the spreadsheet, grr. Someone also sorted it alphabetically, and changed colors randomly, etc. Morrr grrr.

Glad to see your avatar is also finally out of QC and at the port.
 
Checked today, is now in transit (Port Hueneme). So hopefully others on this thread that also has POA as their destination is in transit too. Boat would be Phoenix Leader, based on schedule of Southampton port.
Congrats! That is my destination (Port Hueneme) since I live in CA. But I think I missed the boat, literally. Still stuck "at the Port".
 
Praying to the mini gods my car is put on the WW Patriot today. Guessing we will find out Tuesday.
I can’t imagine all the algorithms they utilize to organize all this. Just looking at the satellite imaging of the Southampton (and Bremerhaven) ports is mind boggling.

I think about that too. The scale of things and all the people that are paid a small amount of money out of the $33000 or whatever my Sig+ costs for the things they do to build this car and get it to me is just silly.
 
The mini gods have bumped the schedule. Patriot is loading today now, instead of yesterday. Holding out for news on Wednesday now!

We're all praying to the mini gods that this week your SE resumes it journey to your garage. Thanks for keeping us updated--your agonizing delay reminds me of my 51-week wait and makes my SE even more precious. I hope you will be as happy with your SE as I am with mine, because I am very, very happy!
 
Here's the next month of ships I know about coming to Baltimore from Southampton.

I think the odds are pretty good we see them land at Baltimore in 2 weeks based on 4 ships coming in 5 days from the 13th-17th and then 4 more the week after in case they don't get on one of those.
