Getting our white bonnet strips on Tuesday. Will look better.

Yours will look (almost) identical to mine once you do! I have the same color combo and the same wheels. The only differences are the subtle face-lift features from my 2021 to your 2022.
 
Well, here are the strips.
Dog gone, our Grizzl-e was to be delivered today, but UPS required signature, so had to get back out the 110 charger. Should be delivered tomorrow.

Anyone's car manage to hop on one of the recent ships out of Southampton (Sirius Highway? Tulane?)

[I need to turn my computer off for the next month and forget I ever ordered this car]

I'm hoping she's on the Tulane. Otherwise it might not be until mid July before I see my car. I have to admit, this is my first time ordering and waiting for a car, and it sucks. I realize mini buyers like to customize, but on the se models there's not much to customize other than trims or colors, and I just wanted a base model in moon walk grey, just stock it. The draw of the mini was the fact of it being a good looking electric car, that with the tax credit, is priced good. (tax credit is key, otherwise, no way)
 
Hey other Grizzl-e owners, please tell me if you cut off the cover for the J1772 plug. I can't figure out any purpose for it, if you are using the holster that is provided. Tried pulling it out but it did not give.
 
I believe that's an all-weather cover to protect the plug in an outdoor situation. I don't use the holster so I just left mine to harmlessly dangle. Probably should get rid of it since my Grizzl-E is inside my garage.
 
Yep, sure don't see any need for it. Agree with you Puppethead, cover for out doors use only. Now trying to convince wife of that.

My MINI is at the dealer! The hardest part now will be waiting for it to get delivered to me, hopefully by the end of next week. (The dealer is 250 miles away, and as part of the deal they offered to deliver it.)

Looks great!!!! Other than the wheels, it is a duplicate of ours. Just put on our stubby antenna this afternoon. Only $10 from Amazon vs $40 from mini. And we put Mini logo seat belt covers on. Also have license plate covers on order (hate advertising for the dealer).
Oh and had quite a time getting the Mini universal garage door opener to work with our Summer garage door opener. Go to Homelink to get instructions. Turns out I did not pay enough attention on their first instruction to push all 3 buttons rather than just 1 and 3 per Mini manual and dealership to reset it.
 
A couple more boats (Fidelio, Patriot!) leaving Southampton today for Baltimore, Galveston, etc. Another couple, both with mighty sea names (Thalatta, Triton Leader), should set sail tomorrow for Panama and California. Keeping all my fingers crossed for all of us waiting here in the US.

Wow, that's a good price! I thought about the stubby antenna for a while, but decided that I like the long stock antenna. Reminds me of my MINI RC car, in green with white roof (just like the one I ordered), that some co-workers gave me when I left my job 18 years ago. I must have talked about loving and wanting a MINI ever since then. I will finally have it soon!
 
According to the tracker, the mini I ordered has been at the port in England for a a week now (6/20/2021). Many ships have come and gone.

SpeedNoodle and HappyKafka, are your cars still stuck in 'quality check' too? The ASK MINI guy today said this usually means they're waiting on some small part like a door switch. They are technically considered finished with production, he said.

I might have to take up a new hobby if this drags on too long.

Hey, SpeedNoodle and TempoHouse, I just talked to a live person at MINI and found out that my car is on the Triton Leader. I figured I’d let you know since the website seems to always be a bit late with its info. I’m guessing the three of us are on the same boat, but you might want to double check.

Sweet! My Garage just updated our status today to "in transit." Probably on the same boat, then.

Thanks so much for the update -- I'm now showing 'in transit' as well, so glad to know the journey has started!

Update - looks like I found the schedule here. Triton Leader is due at Port Hueneme, CA on July 24th.

Wow, this is taking so long! I ordered my SE on 21 May and it's just (as of today) starting on the exterior body assembly. Back 2007 I ordered my first Cooper S, I liked all the a la carte items you could order back then, and it didn't seem to take this long. Anxiously awaiting the delivery of my baby.
