A warning. If you don't want to buy it...don't drive it.
Just look.

He probably pulled a Bat Boy and stole it.

Yeah, my wife and I went to just test drive one. I thought I would like a traditional red/white S and ordered an all red S the next day by phone after seeing an all red MC in the showroom.
MCS, all red (soon to arrive)

Just saw a MCS with NY dealer plates fly through Charlotte NC.

Kidding aside, I hope you enjoyed motoring.

Regards,

I had already decided to order another popular hard-to-come-by car when I (on a whim) decided to drive a MINI.

Took about 5 minutes to decide I needed the MINI. Don't drive it if you're not ready to decide. It's irresistable.

That was BEFORE the test drive, I believe. He was responding to someone who said he would have to buy it after he drove it.
