What a funny, small world we live in.

Congrats. I'd be curious to learn how long the car waits at the VDC and how long up to Rasmussen. I'll be watching out for future posts. Good luck and I hope all turns out well with delivery.

What you are seeing is 2002-2004 Coopers and Cooper S's. They had the reverse light mounted where the current rear fog light system would go.

You cant even buy a good headset for 100 bucks! Let me know if you want to add the Convenience pkg!!

I'd be glad to come up to Eugene when I get mine and let you look out the window and wave.

After further investigation my car made the Madame Butterfly voyage.
Hahahah the rough ETA I have from the shipping place is it should hit Port Hueneme sometime on 7/2, thus far its a good stretch of sun here in Eugene.
