OK -- what is my "MA"? And I think I know what it is, but where does "R56" come from?

PS - My baby is due to port (CA) this Saturday. Yesssss.

MA is Motoring Advisor (salesperson at MINI dealer)

R56 is a 2007 MINI, I believe it's called that because that's what the engine is.

Congrats on almost having a MINI in your hands!

Welcome to NAM. The specs on your MINI sound great. Please post some pics after you've had a chance to get acquainted.

Welcome to NAM, Vinny! Once you hang around her for a while, you'll learn all the lingo. Great-looking specs for your baby!

Thanks folks. Based on the vibes here, I'm as excited about the people I'll be meeing at MINI events as I am about owning and driving one. It just feels right.
