Hello everyone, I'm new

Hi everyone, I just ordered my first MINI. I live in Macomb Township MI, which is about 35 minutes north of Detroit.

I've always liked the MINI's, but never took the plunge, then I had a son and kinda ruled it out. One day looking for a new car on the internet I found the Clubman. The next day I was at the dealership (which was about 6 miles from my house) for a test drive, I brought my 2 1/2 year old with me. It was great, my son kept yelling "faster faster".
So after a couple of days of consulting with my wonderful wife (who drives a Hummer), I placed my order.

This site is great! I had no idea there was such a MINI world out there. I've learned so much on this site already. I'm looking forward to logging on everyday.

How far out is your order? In Seattle (NW Mini dealer), they are 5-6 months out for justa Clubman -- longer for the S/
