Finally got my MCS!

As I reported in an earlier thread, I thought I was going to have to wait until we got my wife's CRV paid off before I joined the ranks of the motoring faithful. Well, at lunch today, I decided to wait no more. Here are the latest additions to the GV motorpool:



OK, so they're just Matchbox versions. But I have them on my desk here at work to keep me focused on what awaits in just 24 to 30 months.

Many of us did the same thing. The waiting is the hardest part!


Good luck!

I see you splurged for two mini's, not bad. I just got mine 2 weeks ago and it is more than worth the wait, good luck!

Ya had me going there for a moment, Grizzie! You'll find that the little MINIs will start piling up on your desk and many other surfaces in your home and workplace as you await your full-size baby!

Grizz, you rascal!

Yes, you really had me going too!! I was all set to grill you about what changed your mind, where did you buy your MINI, etc, etc......

My family was going to get me some MINI toys over Christmas thinking the toys might stop me from talking about MINI's all the time....ha ha....fat chance!

I continue to read several MINI forums and browse www.miniusa.com. I have configured a few dozen different versions of MINI's.....it hasn't help to make the time pass any easier.

Yeah, the wait is awful!
