Ordered my Mini Cooper S today!
Hello new motoring friends! I just ordered my MCS today. I will be a first time mini owner and I am simply giddy with excitement. You see, I have been driving a 1988 Honda CRX since, well, 1988!
My mini is chili red and I went crazy with options. Frankly, just having cup holders will be a luxury to me, so I went all out becasue I hope my mini is my next 24 year car! I have visited the owner's lounge and I am learning my way around here at NAM. Also trying to learn the mini lingo.
Happy to be here!

Welcome to the wonderful world of MINI! Here is a little info for you just because you say you are learning. MINI in all caps is how the company is correctly spelled since BMW took over. Not all MINIs are "MINI Coopers". Cooper is a performance level like Cooper S and John Cooper Works. In the UK, their are two level below Cooper and they are First and One. The First and One are not Coopers because Cooper, from the beginning were performance versions. Because they were designed and mostly manufactured by the Brits, Brit lingo was mainly used in the Mini/MINI culture. As time goes on and BMW steers MINI away from its culture, Brit lingo, as well as Brit names for your MINI are getting few and far between. MINI, as cars are great but the great community that goes with it makes even that much better.

My MA said that when my order was placed yesterday it was an update of a vehicle already in the cue and that sometimes the Order Details on the Owners Lounge takes anywhere from a couple of days to 2 weeks to update. He assured me that the car will be built to my specifications. In the meatime, i will keep checking the Owners Lounge to see when the Convenience Package shows up. Thanks all for your input!

Your MA should have given you a copy of your Vehicle Inquiry Report. That'll have every option you chose. If it's not on there, get your MA to fix it before you go in to production!

My MA gave me a copy of my Vehicle Inquiry Report and it shows all my options: chili red paint, leather punch carbon black upholstery, convenience package, cold weather package, premium package, automatic transmission, white bonnet stripes, white roof and mirrors, xenon headlights, center armrest, and MINI connected with navigation. She's a beauty!
