MCS, Midnight Black with white roof and stripes. Convenience & Premium packages, six-speed, hi-fi. I made my selections partly based on the numerous discussions on here about the different ways to interface an iPhone with the MCS.

My current lease, a 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid, ends in late July. Hopefully my mini arrives in time. And hopefully getting my two-year-old into and out of the child seat in the back of a MCS isn't too backbreaking. :-)

 

my son just turned 3. I have not had any problems. He loves it too! It get's easier with a booster seat.

Just make sure you get something to cover the back of the front seats so they don't get scuffed. Any, my son likes to pull on the net on the back of the seat to pull himself up into the car....trying to help him NOT do that.

 

Congrats! Welcome to the fold!!

The Kool-Aid is thattaway...

 

Congratulations! Your MINI will be here any day now...

I'm guessing that the fun little MCS is going to hover a little closer to the ground than the Highlander. With dogs, you can load 'em through the rear hatch. Maybe your son or daughter will enjoy the 'quick load' style!

 

It arrived on Friday (7/17) and I am picking it up tomorrow. :-)

 

WOW, nice turnaround on order to delivery!! Mine took four months and a day.

Congratulations!!
