Your specs look great! I especially like the brushed alloy interior, its one of my favorite features of my car. Dont feel funny about being excited, I figure that if you arent excited about a new car then you are buying the wrong car! Dont forget to post pictures when you get your new car when you get it!

You're not a "little baby," you're EXPECTING a little baby! Enjoy it! I'm 20 years older than you, and I'm finally driving the little red MINI I've been waiting so long for. I remember watching the Minis racing in the 60's and 70's, and I wanted one then!

Relax and enjoy the feeling...as Trinity says, if you're not excited about your new car, you're not getting the right one.

Maybe because there are more 911's on the road than MCS's (at least around where I live here in southern california)?
