Sounds great! You might want to avail yourself of the wealth of information on the thread pertaining to tracking your MINI. It makes the wait bearable and it can actually be quite fun. I tracked mine and made a few virtual friends in the process with my shipmates!

Track your MINI: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=144057

Here's my thread: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=149533

Enjoy the ride before you enjoy the ride! It's tremendous fun.

Congratulations and welcome to the waiting game. So how many years have you waited? This is about seven for me if my memory serves me correctly.

...and now we're down to the final few weeks. I can hardly sleep at night.

I was still in college in '02. Then I had to pay off college. Then I had to pay for my wife's college. But now I'm married to a doctor and can have my MINI

Sounds beautiful! I wanted to get the web spokes, but I just couldn't justify it.

Congrats on your order and hope time goes by quickly till your MINI berths. In the meantime, there are some obsessing-while-waiting threads for you to hang out in.
