Post how long you waited for your mini once you made the decision to buy.

I think I waited one day, but it took me a week to actually get the time to go get her. I live in Fort Worth, Texas and I had to bus to Memphis to drive her home.

We test drove an MCS on 20th Sept 03, we then ordered one straight away with Grins still on our faces.

We picked it up on the 1st March 04 !!!

Quite a long wait, but we were hoping for better weather (it snowed the week after collection !)

Also the new registration comes out on 1st March (04 signifies March 04), so we figured it would be better for the re-sale value.

My work colleagues got fed up of me announcing how many days left, as I seem to remember counting down from 152 Days. I then would tell them in the final week how many hours and minutes to go.

Needless to say, now the car is here it was worth the wait, just running it in at the moment ready for BLAST OFF !!!

[NEMINI]

3 months 5 days 14 hours 27 minutes

[Johnny225]

3 months(supposed to be) 2.5 months so far... But that's with paying a $2500 premium. Otherwise it would have been 12-16 months at MSRP

[puck]

I don't know... when did the first press releases come out?

Seriously, about six months so far, and it's in the production line right now.
