New to NAM with 09 Cooper on order!

I have been lurking on the site for about a week now, my husband surprised me and ordered my dream car on 12/4. Thanks to the great information on the site I learned it has been scheduled for production in Week 2. Not soon enough, but I guess it will do!

Hopefully by mid to late February I will be driving in style in an:

Oxygen Blue with Black Roof and bonnet
Sports Package
Convenience Package
16" Bridge Spoke
Chrome Line exterior and mirror caps
Auto air
Leather Carbon Punch in Black

Right now, I am thinking of naming it Little Bruiser since it will be black and blue!

We have 2 kids that still ride in boosters, anyone else have any experience with child seats, do they fit well in the back?

I have been obsessing over the car for almost a year now, and I think my husband got tired of me sending over my latest configuration!

Dani

Yes it was! I am currently going to school and we made a deal that we would order one once I completed 60 hours. I am currently at 52, so he really surprised me. He intended to wait until Christmas to spill the beans, but he couldn't wait! I think he is just as excited. I kinda wish he would have waited until Christmas, the waiting is killing me!

That is a nice reward! I don't think I could have kept it a secret either for that long! Yes the waiting is the hardest part but it is worth it! Hang in there!

It didn't even strike me that the '09 MINI's are 50th Anniversary cars until today.

You'd think they'd make a special edition MINI for the occasion.
