Finally got one!!!

Hey all, have been browsing the forums for some time now and ended up buying my new 2005 Mini Cooper S.

It was funny because i was building out my car on the website and went down to my dealer to check them out in real life... and as luck would have it, the EXACT car i specced out was already there on the lot... so needless to say, there was no waiting period for me!

This is an AWESOME car, best one I have ever had. I have owned two Audi TT Quattro Roadsters and this little Mini outhandles them by far. Love it and am glad there is a community like this for like minded people/Mini lovers!

wow.. .very lucky, the wait wasn't too bad. MINI really did a great job with the whole tracking program to make it somewhat less brutal.

Glad you are enjoying it. =)

Congrats on the new car. I had the same experience. I had built my car online and walked into my local dealership just to look at the cars in person before placing an order and there was my exact car sitting in the front window of the showroom.
