Auto at Launch

Will both the MC and MCS be offered with an Automatic at launch?

No idea, it's not even confirmed yet and it will be quite different to the regular S.

Have BMW release the type of gear box they are going to use for the MCS?

I have heard that many turbocharged cars with Auto box dont work too well.
what are people's thoughts?

The last turbocharged automatic equiped auto that I owned worked great, but I only drove it 145,000 miles.

I thought in the UK options PDF it said something about March 07 availability for the auto in the S? Was this before or after the press release?

Hi all................i think they should change the mini cooper S to mini cooper T
as the S used to stand for supercharged but now turbocharged ........ and i also have a question about when the new mini cooper s auto will start produce cause as i read in the uk options pdf that the auto transmission will start production in march 2007 ............. i really really can't wait that long

FYI Southern California dealer just told me there will not be a delay for the MCS auto. They had to call Mini USA rep to find out. MCSa should be able to be ordered as soon as orders can be placed for 07 models

That's great news, dstock. I'm definitely getting an 07 MCSa an I am hoping to get it in March or so, but if it's available sooner than that, all the better. If you hear anything else, please post here, and a PM would be great too.

I am sooo excited for the 07s. It'll be my first Cooper, and I think they look great. Inside AND out. I'm glad Paul's been able to provide such thorough coverage that has been almost across the board positive about these new models!

I'm in the same boat, it will be my first Cooper as well and have been chomping at the bit on the net for every little piece of info I can find. Between Paul and Motoringfile, the coverage has been fantastic.
I'll let you know if I hear anything additional, hopefully the info I got was accurate and we will be in our new mini's before we know it!
