I'm going to pitch this car to my sisters...they better both get it tonight. I want one too.

screw the sales guy. the cooper isn't in a high a demand as the cooper S.
cooper S still has a 6-8month wait list if you want to order one to your liking.
Cooper is about a week or three at the most. Negotiated the price down a few thousand below MSRP.
