I have a screenshot from my MA the day my car was loaded onto the ship. It stated a 22 day estimated journey. That was before the 6 day delay. If you assume the same number of days from yesterday, that puts it in port around 2/2 or so. We will know more tomorrow when NYK RoRo updates their spreadsheet.

Wow and I thought it took a long time for mine to get to the dealer. Ours got to the dealer on Monday the 3rd from the same ship. I hope it gets there soon. Where are you?

I am at Los Angeles (about 60 miles from the port). Sitting there for more than two weeks now. Very sad..... Dealer said they have 25 cars in that shipment and there are 6 including mine still at the port. 3 SE and some countrymen.

Hello, I ordered my SE on Nov. 20th. Was told by the MA that MINI accepted the order on Dec. 15th and that it was scheduled for production in the first week of January. I have been following MyGarage and it said it was scheduled for production until last week when it went backwards to Order Received. My MA has been less than responsive and seems to be offended when I text for updates. She keeps saying she would be happy to refund my deposit—> not what I am looking for- doesn’t seem to need/want my business. But anyhow, called MINI USA number and they were way more helpful. They said my order was just accepted Friday and my production week is week 8. Just will have to be diligent the dealership doesn’t sell it from under me. Turns out the order doesn’t have any of my information tied to it - phone, email or any way to indicate it is my car….anyone else go through this?
 
I only received a production number. And once it starts production you will see the Vin. Nothing connects it to you except at the dealer.

When you put you deposit. Did the dealer make you sign the build sheet as the accepted build? If so that build with that production number should be yours. I don’t know if mini USA would have my information during production and transport. Only go by the number.

That had crossed my mind at one point especially since mine was cutting it close to the end of year and they were selling cancelled reservations at 4k above msrp, but you gotta trust the system. This is all part of the game. There's going to be some highs and lows with an extra high at the end.
 
Picked up Friday. I love it. Hope everyone gets theirs ASAP

I finally picked up Archie, my SE w/Iconic trim! My MA was great at Cincinnati MINI. I forwarded him the issue on the shutters and he made sure they were secure. He spent an hour+ (?) going over all of the controls and even set a few of the Hot Keys. The BMW finance guy was not at all pushy with the add ons. I ended up declining all of the maintenance packages. I did opt for the ceramic coating for $700 and it came with a great kit if I ever get it re-detailed. After reading OP stories of extra fees/doc fees and required purchases, I think Cincinnati MINI was very reasonable. Their doc fee was $250 and not even a mention of a required charging cable fee.
I originally ordered the Electric Power Spoke wheels, but they've been swapped out for now with 16" Radial Spoke wheels and Dunlap SP Winter Sport 3D ROF tires.
Here's Archie (ignore the dirty Countryman (?) in the second shot)!

Here's a pic of the instrument cluster before I left the dealership:

I think I'm quickly getting used to one peddle driving and finessing the accelerator. Planning to take him in for window tinting and ½ body PPF after completing Kentucky registration.
 
Welcome @LTTinNKY and Archie! Love your color combo with the bonnet stripes and the Union Jack side mirrors and, um, whatever they call those front fender fake vent thingies (side strakes? side markers?) — really striking! :cool:
