New almost MINI Cooper Owner.

Hi everyone,

I have a 2012 Lightning Blue Cooper Hardtop (MC?) at the VDC in Krazifornia. Well it was on the Torren that just docked. It will look like this:

I ordered my MC on the 14th of October. It was built on Halloween. I didn't get any packages and few options. White roof, bonnet stripes, Auotomatic, Center armrest (Upgraded), English Oak Dash, UJ Scuttles, UJ Plate frames, UJ Valve stems, and mudflaps. Also, if you look at the picture you might notice that my roof is white and my mirrors are Lghtng Blue. I am getting the mirrors painted by the dealer.

I had considered the UJ on the roof, but not sure if I would like it long term. I wish I could see the car with and without in person. I really liked the red MCS I saw with the flag (But didn't want red). Also, I am rather conservitive, and wondered if the flag would fit me.

Name under consideration for my MINI is "Comet"

About me. Married 24+ yrs, 3 kids (My baby is 17), and a dog. I am an auditor for big brother and live in Colorado. I am originally from Ohio and didn't mind the cold.

Hopefully, our cars don't get Californicated. I will have the first MCS Coupe in Fort Lupton when the Mignon comes in. All goes well and I will be sportin' a new ride before New years!
