Don & Rosemary, Please know my thoughts are with you guys. I hope that the delivery, driving, and ownership experience is so damn flawless that you forget the traumatic order process failure. I'll not have computer access this weekend but will check in on you guys Monday morning. God speed!

Thanks Doo, Just talked to our MA and they are working on Mini Rose now. We will pick her up tomorrow morning. Rosemary's happy and I am sure all the troubles will be forgotten after the drive home.

Mini Rose is home, safe and sound. To celebrate we spent yesterday in the mountains playing. Mini Rose was great and handled herself well. When we got home we had to wash off the bugs and brake dust. For some reason Rosemary had a lot of errands to run today.
Lil Blue Coop is on the Western Hwy heading to SC. due in 11/13.
Thanks all for the concern and well wishes. All the problems have started to fade and Mini Rose has already got some new accessories.

More notes: There is a huge difference between driving with the sport button on, and leaving it off. I really thought it was a silly thing, but the difference is fairly dramatic. With it on it is much more like driving my 04MC, which was so tight! That's what I loved about it so much! Without the sport button on in the 09 that whole thing seems mushy.
And a question for those of you who have picked up your cars - what was in your toolkit?

Hi, I finally had a chance to get back on here and noticed the question on the toolkit. I talked to my MA and she said they had some MINIs that didn't come with everything (she got an email regarding this issue). She said as soon as they come in, she would let me know. So we are supposed to get the Jack and the crow bar (I think that was the other thing missing). Let your MAs know to be on the look out for the missing items!!! They have to provide us with these things even though we have run-flats.
Congrats to Don & Rosemary!!! I'm glad to hear you finally got Mini Rose. Can't wait to see a photo.
