alright, so maybe I just ordered a new MCS 30min ago and still have 2 months to wait, but that's not that point.

2 months is 60 days, which translates to 1440 hours.

Your wait is approximately 2880 times (give or take) what you'd waited when you made this post..

Enjoy.

The first week is the hardest. Once it enters production, it gets a little easier. Then comes the hard part of waiting at the dock. It's all very exciting though!

Seriously, it'll be a frustrating, memorable & enjoyable couple of months. Hang in there.

The first 5 months were bad, the final month is really dragging for me!!

Does that make you feel any better

try waiting for 10 months. thats how long i waited for my 05 MCS.

it really suck, but i guess the long you wait, the more you enjoy your car when you get it.
i had the hardest time right after i ordered my car and when it was about 2 weeks away.
anyways, have fun waiting

Indeed, there's something to be said about waiting for a MINI vs, say, a Prius--not that it's a bad car; just very different, like a very nice, highly efficient dishwasher. Satisfying, but not inspiring.

... except for the part about a prius not being a bad car...it is

everything else though i agree with

no offence to prius owners. its just that you bought a really expensive POS with good MPG.
lol, really no offence.
