Are you for real When mine shows up, it says 10/12, l'm calling in dead! l think the people here will be so happy that it's finally, finally here they'll have a "It's finally here now shut up party". They've already pitched in to get the windows tinted and my wife has a box all wrapped up in pretty red paper with says l can't open until l have keys in hand. What kind of sick world does she live in l've been racking my brain because l already have the lights, CAI, XM radio, V1 radar and sheepskin seat covers! l've shaken it and it raddles a little, hum So for work l'll go down and get a dummy and set him in my chair with a recording that says, sure, yes, ok, yes the weather is nice, my wife is where and all of those other generic things l say through the course of the day. Plus l have to drive all the way to North Scottsdale, 2 1/2 hrs away.

Way cool Browser 23, after you get done with the road trip to San Louis and back up on Highway 1 (that's where l'd go to "break it in") send us some picks The way l figure it, a little highway time, a little windy road just cruising time l'm a little, well !! oh, and this is funny. Mine says it's a 2 door Clubman! Go figure!

I am now the proud owner of a MINI. Just got home from picking it up. Love it. I'll post pictures in the next few days. MINI of Mountain View was great throughout the whole process and zero pressure to add anything. Even waived the security deposit on the lease and threw in free theft protection coverage. No dealer markup either which is what we agreed to when I ordered it. No other goodies thrown in though but my nephews had already bought me a hat, key chain and emergency blanket from MINI. Intro to the car was very thorough and the blue tooth and iPod (iPhone) integration works great. Is not the one that hooks up in the armrest but with the adapter near the cup holders. Mini HiFi sounds pretty good to me. I can see already it is going to be tough keeping it under 4500 RPM for the break in period. Hope the rest of you fellow Traviata people get your cars soon.

Came with the special cable to hook up the iPod. No MP3 cable as that is standard 3mm jacks. I actually thought I was getting the one that hooked up in the armrest but was not charged for that and don't have it. Think the secret compartment one was a different one or previous year one.
