Just got home from watching the Phillies beat the Cardinals to another pleasant turn of events. An email advised me that at 1:45p my S Coupe was at the dealer. I should be able to drive it home on Monday. It's 8:30p now and I'm going to drive over to see if it's outside on the lot.

Add me to the list.

Just placed my order for an R58 S Coupé yesterday - my very first MINI ever! White silver, black roof, black interior, six-speed manual, conical spoke wheels, and harman/kardon stereo.

It's definitely going to be a long wait, but well worth it!

Welcome rosvick, seems the Coupe has brought several MINI newbies in, though if the Coupe wasn't available I likely would have gotten a hardtop.

I couldn't figure out how to enter the colors in the spreadsheet either, so I used copy-paste from other people's entries.

Awww shucks guys I feel very privileged to be one of the first. I will likely not pick it up till after dark tomorrow so more picks will likely wait till Wednesday after NAPALMS first wash.

Beautiful car. Wow. You are going to make a splash that will be heard and seen all over town. Be sure to give a report after you get some miles under your belt.

Wheew. Nice CAR!!

California Highway just pulled out of Baltimore to head towards Brunswick. Unfortunately K-Line updated their schedule and delayed it a day on its arrival to Brunswick, but they also delayed it a day on its arrival to Baltimore (Yet it got their on time)

So hopefully it still arrives in Brunswick on the 5th. I have a feeling it will be later in the evening on the 5th.

So right now we have 1 Cooper, 5 S Coupes, and 7 JCW vehicles yet to be made that are listed on the spreadsheet. When will we see some production on this next group of coupes? If they go in packs, hopefully we will see some movement on our (hopefully) soon to be built cars soon. I am still stuck in "Scheduled for daily production pack," for the last week. If they are gathering parts for my upcoming production something should be happening soon, right?
