Right now, I have a 11AM start time. This should give plenty of time for people to wake up on Saturday, and will still leave you with time after the event to get things done...
That would probably put us at Breaux at 12:30-1ish. Back at Moe's probably by 2:30 or so. I dont want it to take up everybody's complete Saturday, but that sounds like a fun filled day to me... |

Good point. Well, we could reverse the trip. Start off as a food meet. Then go out route 9 to do wine tasting.
Following that, we could do the drive and if people want to just head home from the vineyards, they certainly can do that as well... |

Much wine on an empty stomach does not, a full driving day make

Just found out that I was automatically included in this event. Sorry, but I have to bow out. Life's complicated, and a lot more notice would be needed...

Well, I was hoping my car would be all ready by this coming Saturday, but a delay in the boat schedule will probably bump my delivery back to next week... Im ready to own this car... It just needs to get here |

My car is now not making it to port unil February first. :mad:
This means that my car will not be in my hands until right before this event. I am still in, but just in case any other setbacks come, I might have to make the trip in a non-BMW... There I was picking a very conservative date for the event, and the Integrity is just taking its sweet old time getting here... The boat is scheduled to come in 4 days later than it was originally scheduled... aghhhh.... IM GOING NUTS!!! |

AJ - as you may know, it only took 4 days from the date of arrival at port to the day I picked up my car. So I'm rooting for the same thing with your car.
On the other hand, not to jinx you, but it took a few other guys 8 or 9 days from the same ship... which would really be cutting it close for you!

0 miles...sounds like you should push her to the limit.
I know its all personal preference on the break in method, but hell, why not.

The ipod adaptor should take a day to install. If it were not for that, I might have a better chance at 4 days. My CA guarantees that the car will be at the dealership within 72 hours of the ship coming to port... Lets hope that he is right. This way, I should be able to take delivery Monday after work if all works well... But I also dont want to get my hopes up. Ill say mid to late next week... Im getting pretty close to the 8 weeks from ordering... The E90 came in exactly 6 weeks (to the day) from ordering... |
