I'm thinking of buying or ordering a Mini S and i was wondering if you guys knew how long it would take me on average to get the cooper s(black). Is it possible to get it in a month before i go back to school? If not then I'll just keep searching for some that are already in stock.

I would say that is just about impossible. I placed my order in May and my MCS is presently on the Atlantic sailing to me. Expect another 2 weeks before I get my happy hands on it.

It's pretty hard to find an inventory MCS here in the US. Might get lucky if someone's financing fell through or they refused delivery for some reason (and lost their $1000)...

Cooper S's are in high demand, and lower production than the Cooper. Wait times are significantly longer than the Cooper. An in-stock MCS will be rare, but usually have all the packages.

Good luck,
Ryan

I bet that if you put a list of the options you're looking for on this forum and http://www.mini2.com you'll get responses from some dealers who have what you want in stock (or close to it). It's worth a shot.
