New Guy in DC Area

I'm the proud owner of a 2006 Astro Black MCS, I had placed an order at Mini of Sterling a few weeks ago, and when I was in Annaplis, MD. I just had get another look at some mini's, saw one that came pretty close to what was on order and walked out with the keys.....

I was looking at that exact car when I went to Annapolis!! It was the only MCS that they had with the Aero kit on it at the time. It was a couple weeks ago.

Congrats. I'm all about spontaneous purchases versus agonizing over what-to-get.

Hot car man!

Looking back, I probably should have looked at different dealers stock, and tried to deal a bit, but I did NOT want one loaded with options, so maybe ordering one was the best route afterall.
