Chris,
That is great news. Time will go by fast and in no time you'll get your MC. Which interior did you pick?

I know people often ask why you don't add a couple of additional options, so here goes. The chrome bumpers look especially good with BRG. Also, the little MC spoiler looks great in my opinion. Lastly, the fog lights could come in handy and they provide another toggle.

Of course it'll still be a great car if you stick with what you have.....my 2 cents worth.

Just remember you can still make changes for a while.......

minihume,
black leatherette silver trim interior.

now you guys are going to laugh at me b ut I'm doing a lot of stuff after it gets here to make it look like a MCS, I'm going to buy a carbon fiber hood with mcs scoop and paint it. I'm also going to get the bumpers and side skirts, as well as the crome gas cap and hopefully I can find a stock mcs exhaust to attach.
I know, I know, ricer all the way. but I really wanted a MCS but can't get one because I need an auto because of a disability.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris-- Congrats! Mod-ing some MCS elements is cool! The chrome gas filler cap is such a strong look, I can see doing that for sure!

God speed.

I have a five speed but from what I've read on this board I'd say the CVT is great.

You'll love your car.

I wonder if MINI has thought about beefing up the CVT and making it available on the MCS?
