Official White Silver Owner's Club

OK, so I did order my White Silver Clubman S Last week (after a lot of drama with my first order) and I guess since it's a brand new color for 2011 (not to mention it was officially belonged to Camden & Sidewalk) I couldn't spot a club for it, so how about we initiate one?

So this is an addition to my Older post and I got the Idea from Pepper White Forum, I am going to list the owners based on the order of signing in in this topic (Remember to post a picture of your MINI), so lets Motor!

I ordered my 2011 JCW Hardtop in White Silver with black roof and mirrors. I really wish you could get it with matching roof, but I guess they are keeping that for the special edition cars. So I guess I'm member number 2 then My JCW goes into production in week 40, which from what I heard is the first week for the US JCW's. Since they were delayed a couple of weeks. So here is hoping I get a low chassis number!

kami_sn,
Can you tell us if your "grab bar" is black plastic or is it finished in striped alloy?
Its the area I circled in yellow.

Sorry for delay, I see why you r asking, I guess you used configurator and it dose show it in black but the reality is that it comes in striped alloy

Can we join the club? Ours is a Cooper S with a white roof. I kinda like the black roof better, but this one was in stock, so we bought it rather than wait...

I'll take some with better lighting soon, and make them small enough to upload to the forums. Meanwhile:

Congrats, it really looks good, I love those rims, I think the white roof in long run is better since you don't need to do so much to keep it clean, black roof is really hard to keep clean...

Kami pointed me toward this thread (thanks!).

I plan on ordering a 2011 MINI Cooper (non-S) tomorrow in White Silver but couldn't find any good pics anywhere. After seeing the pictures in this thread, I'm pretty confident that I'll like my configuration:

6-spd manual
White silver
Black roof/mirrors
Black wheels
Sport stripes

Sport package
Cold weather package
Xenon
White signals
Harmon Kardon
Bluetooth/iPod
Arm rest

Unfortunately, I won't be able to order the cloth seats with this color configuration. I was pretty impressed with the feel of the leatherette though so I'm not too disappointed.

It should be here in 6-8 weeks, and I'll definitely post up some pictures when I take delivery!

This is the camden, but has the black roof and wheels. White mirrors though. The black and white silver combo is a good look. My dealer specifically told me white silver wouldn't be available as a 2011. Big fat liar.
I probably would have waited, but still love my mini. Sorry the lighting isn't very good.

Can I be added to the list. Just ordered a R55s on 11/01/10. Statis is 112, hope to be 150 by next week. I got the white top with silver sport strips. MA said rear trim will be same color as body. Anyone have a White/silver with white top? Might look odd with 2 different silvers on back.
The configuror on MINIUSA is worthless.
Thanks
<(((><
