The girlfriend and I will be there today looking for another one for her.
She didn't know I was getting mine (heck, I didn't know I was getting mine until that day... Total impulse!), and she was really unhappy that I had gotten "the car that she wanted."
I told her "you know, they have more... and they'll make one just like you want it!"
Meanwhile, she keeps the extra fob, and drives mine most of the time when we're together. She just might be a better driver than I am.
Just placed my order today at Stevens Creek Mini. saw lots people in the parking lot as well as showroom. Either the economy is good or the car is hot. I guess both. was told to expect 8-10 weeks for delivery. Unlike other manufacturers such as Volvo which gives customers online access to check the build status. Mini has to rely on the sales person to send out a weekly status report via email.
