Hello all! Just completed ordering my 2013 MCS that is Spice Orange! I'm in Midland, Texas and excited to become a member of the MINI family. They have always intrigued me since watching "The Italian Job" and now that I'm in a position that I can buy my first car ever in 18 years, I have decided on MINI! I drive about 40+ miles per day on my work commute and need something that gets decent gas mileage and is fun to drive. From my research nothing beats a MINI! Glad to find such a diverse community and I look forward to learning all I can.

 

Welcome, you will enjoy the car as much as all of us in this forum. For my first MINI, I bought a used one and loved it very much.

 

Welcome aboard. We like pics. Good luck and remember to wave.

 

Welcome

 

Hey bro congrats and I'm in San Antonio, Texas. Show us some pics when you get the chance!

 

Welcome, I bought my Mini for the same commuting reasons. I'm in Austin and we have a big mini community here. Have fun!

 

Welcome to NAM and congrats on your new MINI. A great deal of useful information to look through here on the forum while you wait.

 

Howdy! Where'd you buy your MINI?

 

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'll be sure to wave at any fellow MINI driver I see. I got mine in San Antonio and have about 6 weeks of wait time. Is that about average y'all have experienced? Naturally I've been reading up a storm and already am planning on the mods I'll be doing to it. And pics will be coming for sure!

 

It's a minimum of 6 weeks, I ordered a 2013 CM & it took about 9 weeks from order to delivery.

 

Ill second that. Back in 2012 when my Mom ordered my 2012 Cooper for me, total waiting time was around 9 weeks.

 

Ok guys, well hopefully it will come in with time enough for me to use my $500 coupon I got from the Spring Cleaning event...

 

Your dealer should honor the coupon from the day you ordered the car. My MA & manager locked in the $750 discount & 1.9% APR at the time of order. When I went to pick up the car, the current discount was only $500 but since they locked in $750, they honored the lock rate & discount. You should call your MA and talk to them.

 

Welcome aboard! There's another member on the boards here from Dumas, so there's at least two of you in west Texas!
