First Post, First MINI, Week 32, Hello!

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say "hello" and get my feet wet here with my first post. I am scheduled for Build Week 32 for my MC, and I don't know how I'm going to make it! Like many of you, this is the first time I've had to wait for anything like this...

So, Hello!

Greetings and welcome to the MINIverse. NAM's a cool place to hang out while waiting for your MINI. Can you give us some details about your order, we're big on details around here.

Sure thing.

I ordered from Inskip MINI in Warwick, RI, and actually was initially going to get a 2009MY since there were no 2008 build-slots remaining. In the three days that it took to discuss whether a MINI was right for my wife and I, someone canceled their 2008 and I made it mine. We didn't add too many options, after reading (and agreeing with) an article in a auto-enthusiast magazine that praised the feeling of getting into a minimalist MINI, without certain luxuries.

-2008 MINI Cooper
-Manual Transmission
-British Racing Green
-White roof, mirror caps, and bonnet stripes
-Multi-function sport wheel
-Side Scuttle - Grilles (cause the standard plastic ones looked kinda bad to me)
-Mud Flaps
