Re: Are you the last one?
Nope, you're not the last one. The last one will be me. Not because my car was damaged in transport, not because I live far from the VDC, not because I have options being added, butl because I (like a retard) decided to travel on business out of country the day my Mini showed up at the dealer. Which I might add, was the Saturday after my baby landed. Grrrrr. My dealer has promised to put it in a nice dry, hidden spot so that my baby isn't dinged, dented, touched, breathed on, or even looked at until I get back....(I'm a jealous father!)...sadly my return is not for another 2 weeks.
And as for music when I drive her off...I'm deciding between:
Boston - Its Been Such a Long Time
U2 - Its a Beautiful Day
Yello - Oh Yeah
Jeff Beck - The Pump (and I promise not to drive it into a lake! See Risky Business if you don't know the reference)

WWJD, I love the checkerboard insides! And the red with black stripes. Nice going!
Poor Micheleg, that wait's gotta be tough! Hang in there.
I took Nellie, my Mini, to my PT Cruiser (my other car) car club get-together today. They loved her and were very jealous. Nothing like other car people to appreciate a good-looking, well-built car!

I'm thinking I'll be the last.MA called and I will not pickup my mcc in Portland until the anthracite headliner is installed at the dealer and parts are on back order now,how they missed it on the order who knows but a dealer mistake.I did take a look at it on Saturday though.I do not want to deal with returning to the dealer when parts come in and also concerned with the install so don't want to finalize.Thumper sure was dirty but at least but at least it is parked under cover,secure,and away from the public.We have 6 months invested already so what's another month or so.A little upset.

Wow, great MINI pictures wwjd & Chris.dg! Love em!
I picked mine up on Friday (I WILL be posting pics -- away from my camera right now) and LOVE IT!!!! Utter joy. The handling is SMOOOTH and FAAST and I had smiles in every corner. I now see those signs with the bends notifying of corners and grin. I've never had a car such as this and I now can't imagine driving ANYTHING else. I'M IN LOVE! (over 500 miles already).
ps. Just for the record, this is the first email I've typed on NAM with so many CAPS, but my enthusiasm just can't be contained in these little letters.

So have we disbanded since we've all gotten our MINIs . I got a wave the other day and it made my day -- very sporty blue with white stripes MINI. I will promise to keep waving even it's the first wave. Perhaps some of these people don't know it's the thing to do and are at first shocked and don't have time to respond. Back in the day I had a an old Jeep and the first time I drove it I did not wave because I did not know that they waved to each other.
Keep the faith and keep the wave.
Keep the faith and keep the wave.

And finally, here is a link to my gallery of photos, from my iphone, of "Kooopr." I picked up Kooopr about one week ago but was traveling most of the week so I'm late in posting these...
