Hi everyone =D

Just wanted to say hi officially! I ordered Saturday from Long Beach MINI.
Here are the specs after two revisions:

PW/B MCS
Sunroof
Xenon
Anthracite Dash/Headliner
Cold Weather Package
LSD

I must say that I am absolutely stoked about this car!! The wait is going to kill me for sure. I'm very pleased to be a part of this most supportive and informative community. Hope to see you guys on the road

Congrats and welcome to NAM! There are lots of great MINI folks in SoCal, and several clubs for you to choose from (or join them all! ).

Cold weather package in Long Beach? You know something about a fast approaching ice age we don't?

Some things go with out saying......

Got my MCS 'bout 6 months ago, already clocking over 12,000 miles. HB with W roof, now sits about 3 1/2 inches lower, road race stiff rear sway bar, JCW intake, Miltek cat-back, smoked side markers, mickey-mouse ears next to the tach, supporting volts and boost, 16 percent underdrive pulley. and most important, the alarm!

Welcome, and great choice on the color! and I'm not going to lie... the wait WILL kill you!

As for the cold pkg, I know where you're coming from - I got it too, and I'm in Phoenix! Hey, you're blood thins out here and in the winter 30 feels pretty darn cold!

Huge difference in climate between Phoenix and Long beach. The ocean and all.

Stereolab, I ordered to cold weather package too. With heated seats I never use the heater in the winter time. Plus, very soothing on the back!!! The crazy thing is, when you get out of the car, and your bum is all warm, then a cool breeze blows pass you... you get the distinct impression that your pants are wet. Freaky the first time it happens to you. And, no I don't wear depends!! Congrats on your purchase. We will probably be getting our cars at the same time.

And Gromit801, leave it to you to say something funny!!!! sometimes I search for your responses just to get a laugh!
