After nearly a year of lusting for a MCS, way too much time spent on MCO obsessing over options, a relocation from OH to FL this summer, and finding a new job to pay for the Cooper, I finally ordered my car today! Here are the specs:

Cooper S
Indi Blue/White, white 16" wheels
Black cloth/Anthracite interior
Premium Package
Fog Lights
HK Radio

Thanks to everyone on MCO for all of the great advice. The old "search" function gave me a lot of help with my decision, especially on the sunroof and the HK.

Now excuse me as I move on over to the "Can't Wait for Noivember" thread. My production date is 10/31, and I'm crossing my fingers and hoping to motor by Thanksgiving! :smile:

I was the exact same way, except I already live in florida and relocated to FSU for school, and Im only 18, etc...

Where did you order from? Sadly I dont think you will be motoring by thanksgiving, 15 days after your car is finished is barely enough time for its boat to get over let alone the VPC and what not. Sorry. Mine will be here on the 11th of October if that consoles you any.

Great choice in the best color combo. - IB/W with white wheels (although I may be biased). You'll love it. That combination has the best mix between aggressiveness and fun. Everyone from a Ferrari driver to little kids has commented on how much they like the colors on my MCS. Start saving now for your mods. Mods are like a forbidden fruit, once you taste one, you can never go back.

Congrats, I know how you feel. I just took delivery of my MCS a 10 days ago. The wait is the hardest part.
