My service guy in Texas can't wait to see it in person... Hes actually excited about it

The sales people in Michigan are the same way.... they cant wait for me to bring her in!

That is really really cool! Can't wait to see it. Any chance you'll be around and have it at the Big Bucks planning meeting the 28th? Might be worth the long haul there just to see it!

Josh, I think that you should paint yours all pink! I know that you are secure enough with your manhood.
By the way, the pink car does look really nice.

I saw this pink JCW MCS in person today, and it is awesome. The detailing is excellent. The interior is something that I never thought I would ever see in a MINI, and it rocked.

One particular touch that I thought really made everything flow well together was the black exterior trim (wheel arches, etc...). They weren't the standard rough matte black, they were smooth gloss black.

This is one awesome MINI!!!

Hey thefuturequeenofnebraska!!! Classic MINI is 10 miles from me. If you come to Cleveland contact me and we can do a run (i'll show you the best places to motor here) and the best places to grab a brew afterward.

Just saw this thread.
I hadn't put two and two together when I saw the pics on Emily's Flickr photostream.
Those really are some awesome pics guys.
I like how Tuls snuck in his CG-guy on the Phoenix Public Library wall.


Too bad I missed you two at the Auto Show today.

Now all you need is a matching 70s era pimp suit. Although maybe that should be saved for chad.

Interior looks great. I love the eyes under the bonnet. Never seen them in a "green girl" version.

God save the Queen.

That is awsome. Nebraska MINI's praise the Queen and her new found colors.
