Welcome to NAM!!!

Congrats on your ordering decision!!!

Just took delivery myself on Tuesday.

It's an experience to say the least.

You'll enjoy tracking your Mini on it's path to your driveway.

Participating in this forum keep me sane through my waiting and tracking.

Welcome! If you need some fellow-obsessed Mini folks, check out the Tagus Prod. week 31 link- we're all on the Tagus and pretty fanatical. . .in a good way, of course!

Huge mellow yellow grin

Thanks for the welcome!

I have come to realize that friends/family outside the new mini experience aren't enjoying the same level of excitement

as myself and all of you.

I have also noticed that most of my sentences start with "Did you know that MINI's..."

And if you'd like a road trip right after you get your car, the Umpqua Mini club in Roseburg is taking a day trip to Crater Lake on Sept. 15. I'd love to have a second Mellow Yellow car along.
