Excellent! Please share the photo(s) when you get them!

 

It's heeeeere! My MA sent me this teaser picture today. I pick up on Tuesday.

 

Congratulations, it looks great. I have to ask, why wait until Tuesday? You must be out of town.

 

I know - it's killing me! They need to apply the boot stripes etc. It will be ready earlier than Tuesday, but I work 12 hr shifts Sat, Sun, Mon. So I will have to suck it up.

 

Congrats! Love the black and white combo. So classy!

 

Congrats! Love the chrome line exterior.

 

Ordered a absolute black CM S All4 this afternoon. Will have the car end of June. This will be my 2nd MINI.

 

Congrats! What options?

Black interior A-pillar and roof, don't remember what's that called.

 

sounds like the anthracite headliner...nicely done!

 

That's it right there. I wanted black wheels as well, but that's on the 18" option, which I do not want since I would have to get winter tires. 17" black wheels is not an option in Canada.

 

I will be ordering a Countryman end of June beginning of July. Do any of you have an pros or cons on things you would have gotten?

 

Would have gotten leather because it comes with back support.
Otherwise I'm happy with everything I got.

 

Hopefully the first option you click is for the Countryman S. I don't know that many people would be happy with the non-turbo version especially with auto trans.

HK sound system is a must... it's killing me that the base stereo is useless with the windows down going 60 mph.

MiniMouse's comment about the back support sounds reasonable but I didn't sit in any that had it to know for sure.

Just for cool factor I wouldn't have minded getting the Xenon headlights but I was on a budget. Driving lights look great on the Countryman as well.

 

Thanks so much Foos & Minnie... Yes I am going with the S & Leather. Just need to decide the color.

 

I am so glad I chose Surf Blue. Not a lot of cars with that particular shade.
And yeah, leather has lumbar support which I didn't know wasn't offered in leatherette, until after the fact. I can retrofit it, but it's alot of work from what I've seen.

Also love my mini connected. Along with the app, my car has a personality all her own and I love it!!
Sooooo happy with my car!

 

Just make sure that you see the color in the sunlight. It took us three months but we selected Light Coffee with Black Roof and Mirrors. and make sure that the wheels blend in as well.

 

I had a 2006 Blue S Ragtop and now a 2009 S Chile Red hatchback. I am thinking of Pure Red or Light Coffee. We are moving to Florida next year and have grandson down there, so the 4 doors was a real necessary choice. So looking forward to ordering it. Once again thanks for the input. Your right that color blue is neat.

 

So we put our order in about 2 weeks ago for our Cosmic Blue CM, I cannot stop tracking this stuff, but until today I was watching ship schedules coming out of Southampton, not realizing there was a different plant and port. I know our car awaiting transportation to port, but now I am having to look at waiting another week at least then what I thought, talk about a sad day! Oh well, still can't wait for it to get here, does anyone have any experience on when it moves from awaiting transport to on a ship? It was completed on the 9th, next ship out of Bremerhaven is the 16th. Puts it in to Charleston on the 5th of June, and then hopefully to us the next few days following. Here's hoping!

My CMS sat at the dock in Bremerhaven for 10 days and it took another 4 days for it to show up manifested on MV Topeka. It has been a long wait; good news though it's almost over

 

I heard today that my Cosmic Blue CMS is on the ship named the "Florida Highway" Its in Southampton right now, on its way to Baltimore on 5/27 and then Brunswick, GA. I am getting so impatient, I ordered it on April 14th so it looks like it will probably get to me right at 8 weeks.

 

Tina, my CMS, Stitch was on the Florida Hwy! And yes it did take about 8 weeks. Longest 8 weeks of my life!! Congrats!

 

Tina, where will your's be ending up? I am trying to figure out which destination port mine will be headed to. I am in OKC, OK.

It took Sargent 3 days to get manifested and trucked down to San Diego; good luck. The wait is so worth it! Here's to Tuesday
