I recently lost Gunner to an accident and now will be replacing him. My wife told me she wants to trade our Mini van for a MINI now too. Has anyone heard what a release date will be for the 07's with Turbo engine yet?

 

everything you need to know is right here.

 

Didn't you just have a huge thread about naming gunner? Thats so sad! *tear*

 

not about naming him but Gunner is gone now (RIP) and he did his job of protecting me with his life. Trying to finalize the procedures for getting Gunner II and waiting for the insurance company to get everything done so I can get back to being in a MINI, it is a real bummer when you are removed from your MINI at no fault of your own and you have to wait for someone else to get another one.

After having an accident like I did I wouldn't want to drive any other car now but a MINI.

 

Well I guess I'll be getting a 07 MCS Turbo.....gonna call my local dealer to see how soon can I order my MINI....Cant wait!!!!!

 

Those of you who are waiting for the '07 MCS will have to wait a bit longer than those who are wanting a '07 MC. MCS production will be a few months after the R56 ('07 MC) comes out.

And something else to think about. If you get a 07 MCC or MCSC you get the first generation engine and body. The 2nd generation convertables will be a year after the R56 starts production.

 

Looking at the preposderence of information I will probably go with a MCS 06 rather then wait for the 07 Turbo. If the 07s were coming out in Sep - Nov time frame I would wait but I'll wait for my next MINI for the turbo.

I was really hoping to get a turbo verse super charged MINI but since loosing Gunner in Apr I can't wait until later.
