WOW!!! Sooooo coool! Soooooo jealous!

 

wooohoooo well done saakey, you look really handsome inside a mini, now stop painting every wall with your logo more pics pls...

 

SSSCCCHHH - WEEEEETTT KEY !

I think we did manage to capture the essense of Mr. Thumbs Up on your face there.

Calling Jersey VPC - get my car down here NOW.

 

That is one hot MINI! Congrats!

 

Congrats Saakey! What a WAY COOL MINI!
I pick mine up at 1 pm today! I can't sleep...as evidenced by the fact I'm posting this at 3 am like an idiot! Hope I'll have a pic posted later tonight!

 

Thanks everybody!...Now there's a chance I might not be posting as much. ...as now I finally have my car to drive. ...but who am I kidding. I'm addicted to everything Mini.

 

Saakey:
Congrats The only better looking MINI that I've seen is mine! Enjoy the motoring!

 

Did it come? Have you driven it yet?
Lets see some pics!

 

IT CAME! I drove it home 110 miles from my dealer taking pics along the way. Since I was in Production Week 4, I posted my "mini MINI photo saga" there, but here's the link to that thread, with photos and (hopefully) a little humor:

BTW...my signature is now updated with a genuine, honest-to-goodness photo of my very own MINI. NAH...I ain't excited! (Thanks to everyone on NAM for sharing so much info and enthusiasm!)

 

cool 'ghost town' shot. I guess Saakey may update his signature with a real picture as well, though they are amazingly close already. How many photos from the weekend saakey? don't let us wait too long.:impatient

 

..nah, I like my sig for the time being... but I do like a change from time to time, so we'll see... I must admit, I took far to many photos - my neighbors must think i'm a freak...I even took some while at work (in my gallery)

 

Well, I just blew a few hours getting my sig up. A few hours closer to driving my MCS. Can't wait!

 

So we should all be able to get our MINIs through the break-in before May. Who here is going to the Dragon? I'm considering it, but I haven't been planning on it really.

 

Bah, my MINI is already at the dealer, but because of my work schedule, I can't pick it up until friday. A friend though Atlanta MINIs was kind enough to take a few pictures of Toby when she went up there to see her delivery. My preciousssss



Coming soon to a road near you

 

Sweet! Wish I could get silver color as well. So how do you plan to spend the extra 500 bucks? Is that a bug on the bonnet?

 

I think it's just a relfection... but you scared me

I hadn't really thought about the extra $500 except for reducing my payment. I still need to get an Auxilury Jack.

 

My MA left a message today, my Mini will be unloaded in Vancouver on the 5th. I will probably take delivery on the following weekend.
I can't wait. It is quite a bit sooner than I thought.

I wonder if I should ask them to leave the front plate off the car?

 

Daemon2, what a nice surprise . How far away are you from your dealer? You may consider sniffing around the lot and snap some spy pictures.

My mini will be landing today, such at a long journey. It won't get a warm welcome because of the storm though, hope it finds a nice shelter in VPC.

Am I the only one who's still tracking a ship? well have to take a last shot , mission accomplished
Askmini says my mini is at the port and waiting a shipping vessel , at least they're correct on the first part.

 

Well, my dealer offered me a discount on my delivery package if I came in before the end of the month, so I'm going to get my MINI tonight! Wish me luck!

 

wow what a deal, man you have been lucky all the way, pics soon?

 

I'll be there lurking in the dark sneaking photo's. Its not a long drive to the dealership.

 

Good thing you asked. The dealer/salesman must have some finanicial incentive for getting cars out my month end.

 

I got my MINI!!! I didn't have my camera with me, so pictures are yet to come.

I love this car. It's got so much pep, I can't wait until the break-in miles are through and I can really ride it. :-D
