First time MINI owner, almost

Put down a deposit on a 2010 MCCa Horizon Blue with silver roof, Premium package, Bluetooth/USB/iPod. However, they have to get it from one of the ports because they didn't have a Horizon Blue with the options I wanted on the lot. So, I will get it Wed. or Thu. next week. I got the Premium package for free with 3.9% financing. However, I got low balled on my trade in, a 2002 Xterra SE, but I really want to get rid off it. After I said I thought the trade in was too low, they gave me $500 more plus free floor mats.

OMG Larry, you have waaaaaay more patience than I. I was lucky enough to find the exact specs I wanted on the lot (granted I didn't really want many options as I want to slowly mod it over time). If I had to agonize for that long I'd probably be bouncing up and down the walls. I'm glad the wait is almost over.

I have liked them forever but started saving about a year ago. I have the money now and went for it. I am so excited, it's going to be a blast....
