Hello everybody!

I just put down my deposit to order my 2012 Coupe S while visiting my deler for Motor-tober. Now begins the long wait.

They aren't sure yet when I'll get a production slot.:( There is one possibly in a couple of weeks - the current person in it is still deciding between a Clubman and a Coupe. If they take the Coupe I'll be pushed in December:(

But either way - the process is started and it is on it's way

As the order currently stands:
Color
B23 Spice Orange Body Color
Packages
ZTP Technology Package
6NM MINI Connected
7L5 MINI Connected with Nav System
Options
2GC_2RV 16" 6-Star Spoke Black
314 Heated Mirrors & Washer Jets
345 Chrome Line Interior
383 Black Roof/Mirrors
3A2 Black Headlamp Housings
3A7 Black Sport Stripes
431 Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror
494 Heated Front Seats
4BD Dash Surface in Piano Black
4C1 Carbon Black Color Line
522 Xenon Headlamps
5AA Rear Fog Lamp
5DT Dynamic Traction Control
785 White Turn Signals
ATE1 Cloth: Checkered Carbon Black/Black

Nice! But a little curious... does the insurance company consider this a sports car and up the rates?

So far no one has mentioned that those wheels will require the Sport Suspension - they are one of the 'free' 16" options.

The roads around where I live are in pretty poor shape and I'd like to avoid the sport suspension since this will be a daily driver.

Wish I had the answer - I've made 3 calls to Progressive to get a quote - without a VIN number all they can do is quote me a Hardtop Cooper S. Their system has no clue what a Coupe is yet. Once I have my VIN I will hopefully find out.
