Ordering new MINI Monday

The MA I've been dealing with has today off, and I'll be out of town on Saturday. Come Monday, I've already set it up to place my order! It will be a happy day!

CR/B MCa w/ bonnet stripes
Cold Weather package
front/rear fogs
MFSW

Nothing fancy, but I'm looking forward to it.

No "a". Stop that madness and save some cash!

Sounds great!!! I've ordered both my Coopers as "not fancy" varieties and love them to death just that way!!! I've driven several Cooper automatics and liked them very much!!

I'm sticking with the auto. It's what I test drove and I enjoyed it as much as I'd hoped to.

Thanks for the welcome!

Congratulations! Whether its a stripped down Cooper or a decked out JCW, you'll enjoy the car either way!

+1 for the "a". It's a blast to drive and gives many shifting options. Congrats on the future order. Good luck.

Placed the order last night! They said 5-6 weeks for it to come in. They can't come fast enough! With any luck, when I get back from my vacation mid-July, the MINI will be waiting for me.

We both ordered the same day. Here's to hoping they share a boat ride!

Here here. Drive, SportDrive, Manual Shift on the SportDrive, Manual Shift via Paddles... then if you tie in DSC and the Sport Button, you open another array of options. I'm still wondering what my usual setup will be as far as shifting. Hmm....

With any luck! I have to grab your Not Quite Owner's badge. Hadn't seen that one before.
