    Mine is a customer-ordered car, but I did take over a production slot previously allocated to MINI of Sterling. I'm not sure if that makes my Roadster "Priority 1" or not. MY MA said they usually get their vehicles within 2 days of arrival at the Baltimore VDC, but he never specified what "priority" my Roadster is.

    Bold and beautiful MINI! Today is Thursday. Why are you waiting until Saturday for pickup? I wouldn't have your patience.

    It's better to wait and enjoy a whole day off with your new car.

    Hope you have a great sunny Saturday. :fingerscrossed:

    Weather on Saturday doesn't matter. I will be in the garage with the new baby all day and into the evening. I'll be spending about 12 hours on the first (wheels off) detail.

    We were out to dinner with good friends tonight and they gave us Mini luggage as a gift for the new baby.

    I am in love with Sprocket. He drives great. Did the exterior detail today and will take care of the interior tomorrow.
