i'm supposed to get my GP sometime in October or November (production starts in September).
My dealership had one of two routes to order the GP. Since they are one of the largest MINI dealerships in the country they get a total of 7. The first 4 slots were marked up $2k over MSRP. The remaining three are at MSRP, but of course would get here after the first 4.
I didnt want to pay over MSRP so I'm actually #5 on the list even though I was actually the first to order one. So no 'East Coast/West Coast' pickup for me.
Here's a vid of the GP in case you guys haven't seen it. The pumped up engine sounds awesome

Needless to say, the wait is killing me.
