Order placed today

Ever since I got my 05 MC I have lusted after that extra power that all my friends with MCS had. Today I was able to rectify that issue as I have place my order for a R56 MCS.

CR/W with white mirror caps
16" S-Winders
Cold Weather Package
DSC
LSD
Xenons
Front and Rear Fogs
MFSW
Bluetooth

While I have the sport package on my MC I don't like the crown spokes, too heavy and kinda ugly, so I figured it was better to a la carte the components that I wanted.

Now the wait begins and since I brought the MC off the lot I get to go through this for the very first time. I'm excited all over again.

Why would I keep an 05 MC when I'm buying an 07 MCS? I can only drive one car at once

The new car will be Lorelai II

Production date unknown here, too. It just says "On Order" on the miniusa.com tracker

Call the 866-ask-mini hotline once you know the production #.

Congrats. The wait is much harder in the first couple of weeks and for me I lost a little steam through the next 2-3 weeks. It picks up when you can track the boat. Good luck.
