2013 Order Wait Times

Anyone who has recently placed an order on a 2013 MINI...what kind of wait times are you looking at? I'm possibly looking at an R56 Cooper S (possibly JCW) or an R55 Clubman S (possibly JCW).

Back when I ordered my '03 R53 MCS, I waited about 3-months for delivery...I'm hoping those wait times have come down.

I ordered April 21 and should have it by June 8. I'm on the west coast, so I get extra boat time

Lots of info in the "Those waiting for a 2013" thread in the 1st Gear forum. From placing the order to the car being built might only be a couple of weeks; the rest is the car being transported to you. From what I understand, time has almost run out to factory order an R56, but you shouldn't expect any long delay if you do go ahead soon.

Ordered my MCS March 24th and I picked it up May 8th. Pretty quick delivery even for being on the West Coast.
