I just ordered!!!

Hey all,

I just ordered my new MINI this morning with production slotted for the end of July. I'll know more tonight when I go to the dealership.

Here are the specs:

2006 MINI Cooper
Chili Red/Black
Black & White Bonnet Stripes

Automatic Transmission
Premium Package
Cold Weather Package
Sport Seats with Space Gray Cloth (still on the fence about cloth v. leatherette)
15" 5-Star Rocket Tires
Anthracite Interior

I'M REALLY EXCITED!!!! I'm bouncing off the walls here at work, I think they all think I'm crazy. hehehe


So hello from Ohio, I can't wait to motor!

Congrats!

May your wait be short, but I know it's never short enough.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Congrats!

That bouncy feeling at work doesn't subside until... well... I wouldn't know. I've had Claire for 15 months and I still have it.

A big "welcome to the crazy life of MINIs" from Wisconsin!

Ditto for us too! We're slotted for an end of July build date as well! Did they tell you to expect delivery at the end of August?

Congrats from Columbus, OH. I'm in the waiting phase also. It's killing me and I'm only a week and a half into it.

Hey, that's fantastic!!!!! Your Cooper sounds absolutely awesome...I'd be bouncing off the walls, too!!! NAM is a good place to learn more about your car...and how to take care of it once it arrives in all it's glorious splendor. BTW, don't think you'll regain your sanity once your MINI arives...far from it. You see.....that's when the motoring starts.

My MA told me today that I should get delivery at the end of July. What a pleasant suprise! I also got my production # today, so the stalking of my car begins! hehe

Good color choice. I am also waiting, but it should be at the dealer in about 2 weeks.
