Is it time the MINI Cabriolet/Convertible/Open/R52 had it's own forum? Is there enough posts/interest to warrant this just now? Are we close enough to launch, is seven months too far ahead?

Anyway, just wanted some views before I went ahead and did it, and took a lot of the 'future variants' traffic with it!

I think now is fine it will help people who are on the bubble and might buy one plus the longer you wait the more stuff you have to sift through and move to it

well i'll certainly go for it.before i got my mc/brg in feb of this year i didn't know about this site.i lve my car,havn't had any major issues.(wiring harness)but that seems to be common.point is i've seen so many great looking cars here and the resent posts of the cabrio have quite honestly made me quite envious.i;ve already spoken to my dealer who says they will be available here in the u.s. sometime mid 2k4....i'd love to be armed and ready to spec my new addition

Based on my own views, messages I've had before, and the first few votes of this poll, the new cabriolet forum is open for business: http://www.mini2.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=622

NEMINI · Sep 10th, 2003, 02:36 AM

Yep I would say there was enough interest to have a Cabrio/open forum,but then you would expect me to say that.

Keep the future variants in its own forum if at all possible please.

I was going to say that it would be a good idea, but it's already too late. There is a forum. good thing I always check down there

I was gonig to say yes too but it's already happened. Most of the furture variant threads were concerning the Cab so it's only right.

Dom · Sep 10th, 2003, 11:21 AM

yup... every large community needs a hairdresser

AidenL · Sep 10th, 2003, 11:41 AM

Yes...........too late.............

Do you ever get the feeling Paul asks questions just to make us feel like we have input on things he's already decided?

I think if something can have 51 threads months before release, its clearly worthy of its own forum, but you know, this happens hours ago, so I'm clearly not spending enough time on here.

I was bias, and it only took four votes to sway me!

Magic 8-ball was correct. All be in awe of Magic 8 ball.
