Inskip in Warwick, RI, actually. It's the closest to me and easiest to get to for service. I have been going there for all my service on the '08 MCS and have been pleased.

Delivered
Took delivery of my Dark Silver JCW I'm calling Wade, about 13 hours ago. Spent a few hours covering some of the chrome, a few more playing with settings, got a few hours of sleep, and can't get back to sleep now. Of course of all the things I took with me to the dealer for pickup, I forgot my Canon. I'll look into getting a few pictures that aren't from my Pre today when there's light.

Congrats on picking up Wade. Can't wait to see pics.

[QUOTE=christo4ferris;3041365]Had a BLAST but the afternoon was too short, we managed to get there, pick up and then we had a round trip from RI to home and back for an early evening tennis match.
I only managed a couple of pics with the iPhone... I'll work on more with a real camera soon.
I brought my nano with a newly designed playlist of songs that captured the driving/riding/highway theme perfectly, and my wife and I had the top down all afternoon. The car is awesome! I couldn't be more pleased so far.
For your viewing pleasure:
Your MINI looks fabulous! So happy to hear the weather cooperated and provided a good first day for motoring in your new convertible. Congratulations!

I've heard good things about Inskip. I'm going through Herb Chambers, my in-laws have been going through HC Honda for years and like them so we gave HC MINI a try.

Had my Chili Red detailed over the weekend. I wanted to use the MINI detailing service offered by my dealer, but they wanted to keep the car for two days, and I couldn't bear to part with her for that long 
She looks brand new again! Yay!

I'm so over work right now. Everyone wants to go look at the car but I'd rather get out and motor. So I've already made 2 trips outside to talk about the car with co-workers. And everyone comes in wondering where my MR2 is, and if the MINI is mine because I'm one of only 2 or 3 people who back into their spots in the whole company. But of course since we're a software department, it's 9:20 and only half the team is in so far.

The all-black look is really quite nice! Enjoy your new wheels!!!
In keeping with gojogo's query, did u bring your ipod/mem stick with
a driving playlist, and if so, what was the first song?
Can't wait to see some pics of the new ride!
