got the bug

I was already planning on getting a MINI Clubman, but when I found this site, I got off my duff and went down and ordered one! Now, just have to wait the agonizing 8 weeks! ugh!

We ordered the Clubman S, Pepper White/Black Top, Black Lounge Leather and went ahead and opt'd for the the Nav system. I went to a couple of dealers and found one that would not have a mark up. They list the mark up on the cars, but when you go to order it, they say "since you're a nice guy.. blah blah blah.. we'll waive the markup".

I get my production number tomorrow (they weren't sync'd up or something when I ordered it on Saturday and said it was standard for them to put all the weekend orders in on Monday). The dealership was packed, while I was ordering mine, 2 other people were ordering at the same time.. and they were ordering Clubmans as well. I started first, so I got the first spot on the order, not sure if they were all the same build times, but I wanted to make sure to get the earliest build time as possible!

Now comes the hard part.. the waiting... ugh.
