MInis ?
#1
Just wondering how many of us people from Michigan were so head over heels with the MINI that we couldn't wait for the dealer in Detroit to open. Not seeing very many and have only found an eb/w S and a strong rumor of another y/b ? Thought a posting might be in order.

I'm was stupid and trusted that the MI MINI dealership was going to open on time. By the time I discovered this problem, I thought the waiting lists would be too long at other locations. I justified the wait by thinking I was going to get the HK sound, the full winter package, and INDI Blue on MCS. Anyway I'm hoping I will be motoring around the Detroit area in mid-October.

Don't know if I'm one of the four, but I'm just south Of Kazoo in Mendon. Bought my first mini, a '67, from a dealer up in Holland. I think there's another y/b in Kazoo proper. So far don't know if its a MC or MCS, but it has a sunroof, that I don''t. People at work keep saying they saw me at ... and think I'm keeping strange hours, when really its only the other y/b. Guess its not always a plus having a unique car.

I can absolutely confirm that Motor City MINI is open. Ordered my MCS 2 weeks ago. At that time, they did have a couple of cars available for immediate purchase, but I imagine that situation changes daily....
Dave Harting was the salesman I dealt with, and he's been great!
His phone number is: (586) 772-8600

>>I just received the call from Motor City MINI that my yellow MC w/ black roof and all 3 option packages is ready for delivery! In a few days my 52 mile commute from Toledo to Allen Park will be that much more interesting. I may have to pick a slower route to prolong the drive!
How much time did it take from your date of production to date of delivery? My MCS is scheduled for production on 10/11.... Trying to figure out how much time lag for transport to port, ocean trip, offloading, transport to Michigan....etc.

All in all, it took ~30 days from order placement to receipt of my car (which is now safely parked in my garage). When I picked up my MINI at MotorCityMini, the dealership was covered up with cars, MC and MCS. My first time driving my new car brought me from Eastpointe back to Dearborn along 94E (aka "the gravelhauler speedway" ...what a rude awakening as to how bad a road can really be! I'll be tooling around Toledo for the next month (but under 4500 RPM) to break it in.

I don't have feedback on the MCM service department, but if they are anything like the sales department we should be in good shape.
