New to mini2. My first-est post!

I've been monitoring the build progress of my chili red/white MSC from the owner's lounge but i knew nothing about the shipping company.

Piecing together your posts i found the WW website and searched for my VIN (last 7 digits). My car is on the Tanabata. Bound for Charleston, SC; arriving wednesday (the 21st). My production date was Aug 2. On Aug 3 the status changed to waiting for transport. On Aug 14th the status changed to en route, but now I see that it had already sailed on the 8th.

I bought my car from Roadshow MINI in Memphis (to avoid a large surcharge here in Milwaukee); so that's where its headed.

From the miniusa site I got the idea that they all went to a common distribution center in Jersey or somewhere. Is that not the case?

Motor on!

p.s. Glad to be here!
