I have a base 2005 MCS on order for MSRP that will arrive in mid to late March. I ended up purchasing a compact truck instead. It is arriving at a So Cal Mini dealership. I will PM the first interested NAM member to contact me after responding this post. Those in So Cal know Mini dealers are still selling Cooper "S" models for well over MSRP. Compensation to me for not waiting 10 months for your "S" will be left up to the interested individual! The specs are as follows...

-Liquid Yellow w/black roof and mirrors
-Space cloth interior
-Alloy Patina dash
-MSRP of $20,500 including new price hike and destination fee
-It has ZERO options (less weight = better performance!)

It is too late to change specs, so please do not ask. If you are a SERIOUS buyer looking for a new 2005 base model Cooper "S" in awesome LY (Bonus safety feature: other drivers WILL see your tiny Cooper on the road) with a 6-speed manual tranny, send me a PM.
