A Sidewalk club would be nice. We're all over the boards, maybe we need a home of our own.

Very cool! can't wait to see pics. I don't think I've seen a Sidewalk in white... besides, with a cabrio, you shouldn't be hard to spot.

NL2NB is the big spring event. they also have a fall run as well. Next year, there's a big event in July (Mini Meet East & West) in Winona...

We've gotten hit with snow today - 5 to 7 inches. We'll still take delivery, but wait a few days to drive it home. I can't see getting it all dirty immediately.

Going out to pay for it shortly - it will be stored indoors at Motorwerks until later when the snow melts. We'll be out in Denver Mid-May during the NL2NB, but there will be other times. Looking forward to hooking up with the Mini-Sota group.

I just saw a Sidewalk on our dealer's site, Astroblack with Black leather in the same style as the Malt Brown. The steering wheel and shifter ball still had the malt brown accent though. Weird. Cool, but weird.

Congratulations on your new Sidewalk. We took delivery on our 07 Sparkling Silver Sidewalk S last August and can't wait for convertible weather in Wisconsin and more endless road trips. Make sure you check out the wind screen that is available...it makes a world of difference on the highway. Are the Sidewalk Mini Club decals available for purchase?
