Freshly ordered, and ready to drive

I just ordered my beautiful surf blue/white Countryman yesterday. I considered the Clubman, but fell in love with the CM (my bike fits inside better). As soon as I test drove, I knew that this was my new car. Now starts the longest 10 weeks of my life.

So if, in 10 weeks and one day, you see someone driving along the streets of Atlanta with a goofy grin on her face, you can say you met her first here.

From what I understand, the next 10 weeks will feel more like 10 months.
I hope it isn't that bad. I'll probably never get to see your goofy grin, but the good part is, is that you can't even slap it off your face. Best of luck

Yes, the wait is so excruciatingly long and drawn out and all you want to do every time you see a MINI driver is wave and test drive MINI's and go to the dealership every weekend....but it will be worth it! Welcome!

Welcome to the NAM. Don't worry, the 10 weeks will only seem longer than what it really is.

Welcome! My car somehow is almost here after test driving and starting the ordering porcess on Jan 15...even though it's a few WEEKS early, it still seems like it took forever....and my wait is not over. Still waiting for that call from the dealer.

Good luck and have fun tracking your bundle.
