New 2009 Cooper Clubman S
Just took delivery of my new 2009 Cooper Clubman S yesterday, and loving every minute of it. Options are in my sig, only thing I didn't list is its a manual and has the black roof.
I came from a 2005 Mercedes C55 AMG, which was an amazing car, until it started breaking down every month and out of warranty it was just too much to handle.
I couldn't be happier with my purchase, and getting 30mpg on my commute to work, which is all city driving, is nice compared to the ~10 I was getting with my old V8 monster

Welcome!
I sold a 3 series BMW convertible and bought an '09 MINI S Convertible. People thought I was crazy "dropping down" to a MINI and I wondered if it was a passing thing and if I would be happy months after the purchase.
Well, 7 months later I have no regrets at all. I love BMW's and the MINI shows its BMW heart and is so responsive and fun to drive.
You'll find quite a few NAM members that previously owned much more "serious iron" prior to getting a MINI. It is hard to explain why a MINI is so much fun.
A good friend just picked up a JCW Clubman just before Christmas and is very happy with it. I like the looks and extra room of the Clubman.
I noted that you have the cold weather package - the heated seats were the best $500 I spent on the MCS....and I'm in Atlanta.
Congrats and Happy Motoring!!!

Congrats on your Mini and welcome to NAM. I got my clubman not to long ago and I'm with you on the heated seats. My wife loves them and has them on ALL the time and man do those suckers get hot. Driving that is my favorite part of my day.
