Lets face it. Information is power. Someone figured out the hard way how to follow their car and Paul made it easy for this info to get to the analog guys like myself by setting up this site.

I think that a lot of people have been following the progress of their cars a lot closer than people ever expected. I know that I did because I am impatient and it gave me some sort of fulfillment to see progress.

That being said the sheer increase in volume has to have put a strain on the resources. Previous threads have stated that people used to be able to call WW and find out the shipping status directly. Now they are being referred back to MINI. We used to be able to get through directly to the call line now we might get put on hold. The Owners lounge used to be timely now it is a little behind. I think the real statement that is being made is that the word is really getting out.
