Talking CM S has been finally ordered!

First factory order! I am quite excited! The long wait now begins?

Any suggestions to remedy the agony of waiting?

Suggestions?
  • Go over all the options and second guess your order. (Repeat Often)
  • Question your MA's competence in placing the order. (Fret over order accuracy)
  • Call often for VIN number.
  • Visit all the web sites for status. (Why isn't there an update for lug nut tightening?)
  • Visit all the web sites for after-market. (Ooooo MINI logo mittens!)
  • Drive you wife/husband/SO crazy with "what ifs".
  • Make up with your wife/husband/SO for driving them crazy.
Lots of things to do - be creative!

Now that's funny right there. (Mostly because it's true.)

I just finalized my CM-S order yesterday.
I'm hopeful to be driving it by the end of May.
In the meantime, I'm fortunate to have my JCW to ease the wait.

I thought I would never be loony about waiting for my car, but I was. I guess I still am. Seriously though, just walk away from the forums for as long as you can. It's like running and watching for every mile marker. It's grueling. If you don't look it goes faster. A watched pot never boils.....

Now, where can I get mittens with a mini logo????
