Hello Everyone,

This is my 1st post on the Mini forum. My girlfriend just ordered a MCS (Lotus Elise for me) so I figured I would checkout the community.

Derek,

Are you on NAM's sister site called PureSportsCar.com which supports the North American Lotus Elise community?

Been there, but I tend to go to Elistalk more. Both good sites. I'm currently teaching her to drive stick on my Jeep Wrangler She will get her car before me. They said 2-3 months. I'm #9 on the list for my Elise and will likely get it in Aug - Sept 04. I’m glade she went with the MCS instead of something boring. She is looking forward to going to some track days to learn her new car’s handling characteristics.

Anything I should know about the MCS with a new stick driver?

Aloha and welcome to NAM.
Let us know if some question comes up about the MCS. Should be fun with those two cars.
