Press the "Manage Attachments" button and upload after you've attached them. They're currently still on your computer and no one can see them except youself.

Yay for multi-MINI families! Now when your partner isn't looking, you should swap headlights because the blacked out headlights would look sweet on your cabriolet!

Maybe MINI ownership should be a prerequisite for my potential intended in the near future! They're both gorgeous. You both have obvious, exquisite taste! Molto Felicitations!

Oops I meant Camden, not the Mayfair!!! Were really excited. I want to change my wheels (the cabrio).. Have decided on 17" direct swaps, so I domt compromise ride quality. With all the chrome, should I go all chrome wheels, or silver with chrome "lip," or blk with chrome "lip?" ideas and pics ???

both cars look good. as far as wheel choices, have you looked at the Rota RB wheels? that is what i have on my silver MINI and i think they look really good. more aggressive looking than the normal Cooper S wheels but still classic looking and have a nice lip on them.

Congrats! Great color choices and looks like you really did get the best of both worlds with the Convertible and hardtop.

No decision, I'm a convertible type, always gotta drive one! I traded in my '09 SL 550. So I drive my convertible each day, usually with the top partially back (these high 90's will bake your brain!) and blaring my stereo around town! He drives the hard top as his daily driver, and usually drives when we go to dinner or errands! Their both a lot of fun. I'm leaning towards the silver (with polished lip) classic look of the RB Rota wheels as my first mod.

why from the SL550 to the MINI? Do you miss the get up and go? Or did you not go that fast in the SL?
