There are many posts about the different production dates, I figure out it is good to see people who is going to order a 04 model here.

I have so many questions and answers about the new 04 models. I would like to meet the 04 crews here.

Cool! I am currently awaiting for a new 2004 MCS for October '03 delivery. Placed the order at the end of January and been going at it for the 10 month wait. I have no idea about any price increases or equipment changes for the 2004 model year as MINIUSA will not release that info until the month of August.

My current lease is up in Dec and I plan to order a 2004 MCS for delivery in Dec or Jan. From what I understand I won't have to actually pay my deposit until July or Aug for my MINI to be ordered in Nov and built in Dec and delivered in Jan.

I knew my lease was up this year so over the holidays I started researching cars and found the MINI! Now I can't wait for this lease to end so I can have my MCS.

There are some POSSIBLE changes on the 04 model:

1. Key changes,
this has been a hugh discussion, Possibilities, Audi/VW key type.

2. PDA enable:
MINI International has showed that this would be available in US at the end of 2003.

3. 3 spoke steering wheel. as show on the other thread.

4. Leaking fixs:
i think everybody knows what i mean. this is the top issues to be fixed.

5: Windshield fix:

6. more color available,
so far Orange Metalic is confirmed. EB for MC and Pepper White.

7. MP3/aux enable

8. Multi steering wheel phone activation enable.

9. Bumper changes
Possible available MC bumper on MCS, eg, inserts.

10. New Interior color added.
Carbon Fiber trends type posiible.

11. Bluetooth Tech ready.


These possible changes are only based on my personal online research/friends in EU/MINI Dealership and My kindly hope on my upcoming 04 MCS.

This Just In...

...from the field - '04 MINIs will be left out of This MINIamazing Event.

But - we'll be back, bigger and better next year. I, for one, cannot wait to see those three spoke orange metallic, bumper inserted monsters take on the '02s and '03s for bragging rights!

MOTOR On, Brothers 'n Sisters.

(Hi Austin - it's been a while!)
