May 2005 build anyone?

I just ordered a May build, June delivery dark silver with white top MCS from MINI of Mountain View and so far my experience with the dealership has been positive overall.

I'm a graphic designer living in San Jose and would like to hear from you if you also have a May 2005 build MINI on order.

Congrats! I originally planned on ordering from Mountain View until I found out they had a mark-up. So I decided to order elsewhere for MSRP to afford mods quicker.What are the specs on your car?

I almost did the same when I found out about their markup. It took me a few months of research before I finally decided to pay it.

After 3 years of evolving my specs online here's the final configuration I chose:

-Dark silver body with white roof/mirrors
-Sport package
-LSD (yeah!)
-Anthracite dash etc.
-On-board computer
-MFSW
-Harman Kardon

Chose not to get:

-Bonnet stripes
-iPod adaptor (the fact you can't see songs on the HU is scandalous in my opinion, totally takes the functionality and fun factor out of the iPod—I'm on my 4th iPod BTW)
-Sunroof
-Satellite Radio

Will upgrade later:

-Rims
-Satellite Radio
-Waiting for a real iPod adaptor solution that maintains the spirit of the iPod
