Me too! Another MC on the way soon.

Hello everyone.

After thinking and planning for many months, I ordered a MINI yesterday. It will be a base model Cooper, chili red with white top and mirrors, and should be an early November build.

I had test driven the MCS a while back but right now the budget's tight. I was very impressed with the responsiveness of the base model 2005 MC -- especially when the revs are up.

This message board has already been an incredible resource. Hope I can lean on you all for moral support as the 10-12 week wait begins. Thanks!

Congrats! You're going to LOVE your Cooper!!!

Watch for a "Can't Wait For..." thread of other soon-to-be owners....lots of good info on every step of your MINI's journey to your driveway. Lots of good, fun communal angst, too.

Also, be sure to get your list of detailing acquisitions together...starting with the right products help keep you MINI well protected and lookin' fine!!

CR/W...classic, fun, cheeky, and always a head turner!!!
