Let me just say wecome to our little world here.If you order it now you will most likely be in the may club. or if your real lucky late april. most people who are ordering about now are getting late march production dates. Hope that helps.

Congrats on getting your order in! :smile:

Basically you estimate the month you'll be picking your MINI up in and start posting away in the appropriate club.

Just a specific forum for people to get together and cry/cheer!

When you know what month you hope to pick up your new car, join the appropriate "cant wait for" club and have fun :smile:

the can't wait clubs are for those who have ordered there MINI and expect to receive it in the given month for the club. Ask your dealer to let you know when the order is actually placed with the factory. At that point they should be able to give you a production # and an estimate of the month you might expect delivery. Then you just sign on and either find that months club or start it if it doesn't exist yet. I believe May was the last club to start, I haven't notice June yet. What are you ordering ??? and welcome to MINICOOPERONLINE

Might want to do some research. there are several options people swear by

MFSW and Sport seats, most consider a must have Item

LY/B is a nice color combo

The Can't Wait Clubs were started by a great fellow in Canada! - RYGOLD! After you get your VIN number, you can hang out there with other people who expect to get delivery of their MINI in the same month you expect to. The wait can kill a person so it's a great place to post how your progress is going and to share your car being built, on the dock, waiting on the dock, shipped, etc.... You can share frustrations and know that everyone in the club has waited like you have so they totally understand and support you!

THANK YOU RYGOLD !

no thanks. ive been doing research for this car for a year. im happy that with what im getting. i dont like the sport seats. my bf loves em. right now im really into the look and not so much power. as far as packages/options, the only one i was really looking into was the premium. but the sunroof is all i really want. also, financially it works out better for me this way. thanks though

Hey, Austin: Thanks for the comments. The CWF November C saved my sanity. Can you believe that Club Feb is almost at 20,000 page views? Quite MINIamazing!

So, minibear, get with the program, join a Club and wait it out. Make new friends, meet interesting people.

And then - come here!. I'm hoping Austin makes the trip up. It'll be well worth it, Austin! Promise!
