Slight disappointment, but at least I know

I spoke with Jerry at MINI of the Hamptons today to confirm that my build week was 28 - he sent me email later saying it was and to expect the car to arrive in NY within 30 days.

However, after making my first post to NAM (www.northamericanmotoring.com) as a first time owner, I got access to an 800 number where I could ask a person at the plant! They told me I was actually week 30. They gave me actual dates but I was so paying attention to the fact I was slid back two weeks, I failed to write the dates down! Oh well, I'll call again next week! :)

It's a bit of a disappointment to learn I have two more weeks to wait, but I was originally expecting my build to be sometime in August with delivery in September, so I'm still ahead of that schedule.

Now, I just have to decide if I'm going to have it shipped back to Arizona or maybe fly out and drive it back! Lots of posters on NAM are saying that's what I should do and it IS tempting!
