I am awaiting delivery in New York City. With my production date of 9/27, I've seen the following ships leaving Southampton :

Fidelio - 9/28 - Baltimore - 10/8 - Charleston 10/11
Don Juan - 9/29 - NYC 10/8 - Baltimore 10/10
Manon - 10/3 - Baltimore - 10/12
Jingu Maru - 10/6 - Baltimore - 10/17

If I don't make the Don Juan, will they Truck a NYC bound car from Baltimore or will I have to wait for a ship that pulls in direct to return (another 3 weeks or so)?

I don't know this for sure, sjjn, but my guess is that you will have to wait. Distance on a boat is much less expensive than distance over roadways. I don't think MINI (or any car company) would spend more money to save a few potential customers a few weeks of wait.
