Ordered my 2011 today

I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a new MCS from Flow Mini in Raleigh,NC. I changed the color three times while at the dealer, but finally went back to me first choice; laser blue with polar beige leather, sport pkg and sport suspension. Now the wait begins.

Congratulations! All that last minute decision making doesn't leave you for awhile. In the last week we've debated the body color (pepper white of course! No wait, white silver looks so great in person. No, pepper white!) the roof color (body finish of corse. No wait, black. No, body color!) the existence of roof rails (no) the spoiler (no) black headlight housings (no but almost) and the question of black web spokes or silver (stayed with silver)... And of course, nav being delayed made it easier not to get it but then of course you wonder.

Point being, though, that the best choices were the ones that led to the car getting ordered. That's your baby now! It'll be perfect!

Congrats! Welcome to the wait-club! I'm sure it'll all be worth it.

I too had 3 colors to choose from and ended up with my first choice (the one I had actually seen and liked).
