I hope it's not too early for me to be posting in this thread, since I just placed my order a few hours ago...
Now I just have to wait. And I am NOT a patient person.
So here's what I ordered: Oxygen Blue/Black Roof & Bonnet Stripes, 6-speed Manual, Chrome Line Exterior, White Turn Signals, Sport Package, Premium Package, Xenon Lights, Anthracite Headliner (this was a MUST HAVE), Hi-Fi Sound System...His name will be Ianto...

Thanks for asking, he is still in the shop. A part is supposed to come in today. Fortunately he's been tucked in their garage all week, but they had to remove the bumper to get to the leak. I will update once I have him back.
On a side note we went to the mall this weekend in the loaner. As we pulled into the parking garage there was an empty spot right next to a fellow oxy blue! It made me really miss Bruiser. I am driving a Nightfire Red MC with an American Flag on the roof.

I was hoping to be posting in this thread last week. But MINI of San Antonio called to inform my girlfriend and I that her OxyBlue was damaged over 3% MSRP (it had been sitting in SC for 3 weeks and I was wondering if that was the case) and MINI won't be selling the car to us.
Another car has been ordered as its replacement and should be here in mid April.
She's getting impatient. Although MINI of SA has been really great. They are giving her a temporary MINI to drive around until then.
Here are some specs:
09 Oxygen Blue Cooper/Manual :D
White Roof/Mirros
Bonnet Stripes
White Turn Signals
Front Fogs
Rear Fog
Xenons
Aero Kit
White 16" Bridge Spokes
Sport Seats
Cloth
Leather MultiFunc Wheel
Driving Lamps
Until then I guess its just sit here and in this thread.

afshawnt - was your girlfriend's MINI built during Week 3? On the Week 3 board, there was another MINI damaged beyond repair too. That is terrible. I am glad you are having a good experience with MINI of SA though. We also bought ours from them, and are experiencing some trouble too. The sales process was great and my MA was very responsive. The car leaked oil from the first night we brought the MINI home. In the end, they have handled the situation okay. I wonder how many loaners they have, you and I are using 2 of them!

Welcome afshawnt!! Sorry to hear about your MINI mis-hap, but I agree with RJ, it was good of them to 'fess up. Now (if you're anything like me) you can second-guess all your options for another coupla months. Yours sounds like a great order so maybe you won't be as neurotic as I was.
Don't worry, the time will pass and you'll have it just in time for spring. Well...our spring anyways.

Cooper Dreams, so glad to hear you got Bruiser back!
I saw an OB/B parked in a business right behind where I work yesterday. I considered pulling in the parking lot and waiting until its owner came out. I thought that might be too stalkeresque, though...
And I saw my very first real life Silk Green yesterday going the opposite direction on the highway. What a pretty color!

We had taken a trip approx. 60miles down South and a Cabrio pulled in behind us and then park a few spots away. It was raining...He had his top down!!
We got out of our cars and I said "that's pretty brave", he explained that as long as you are moving the inside of the car does not get wet. I thought about introducing ourselves, but thought that might be a little uncomfortable for him. Oh well...it let's people know that we ALL have very unique and interesting cars.
