Congratulations and welcome! It's a long wait for you, but I'm sure you'll find it's worth it in the end. Spending time on MCO will help ease the pain, but hang on to your wallet. You'll get all kinds of ideas for things you "need" to buy for your new baby (before it even arrives).

Welcome to MCO! We're all interested in hearing about your specs. And by the way, don't listen to Jerseygirl talk about the wait being worth it--she couldn't wait and bought one off the dealership floor! (although we all think it is a great looking car and are envious that we didn't find ours in the same way )

Have a great time on MCO while you wait. What dealer did you use? Did they give you an estimated delivery month?

Welcome Qpid! What got you hooked on the Mini??? (Was it because it is slow, handles poorly, oversized, ugly and has great cup holders? ) No really, what's the attraction for you?

well i'm not so much into pure speed. as fun as it is going fast, i like rides that are smooth and have good handling. the first thing that got me into the cooper was its unique look. im the type to always want something different. after researching the car for a while, i decided i wanted one. i test drove an S and then rented a regular cooper for a weekend. I LOVED it. after that, nothing could change my mind about getting one ^_^

Jerseygirl, you get more compliments on your Mini than I have ever seen. You must be proud! (By the way, I think it looks great too!) My IB will have black roof, etc.... Your dash takes the cake, though....
