That's really cool, but does that mean they use people's photos without asking for permission or giving credit?

No, we had posted that pic on their wall. They reused it and gave attribution in the post.

I'm thrilled with the way everything from the red caps/ducts/calipers to the stripes with red accents & red "4" came together! Gotta motor!!

I'm usually not a big fan of the white/black top combo (I think it looks good, but me thinks there are too many white cars around), but it looks fantastic with the red accents.

VERY nice job Rktcyntst!

Man I still have to get around to taking some pics of mine. This weekend maybe.

I agree about the white cars. I never considered getting white since they're everywhere and kinda plain. But coming from a black car, it's a lot easier to keep clean and once I saw an Oreo in person, I thought it looked sharp in a classic way! I just wanted to give it a little splash of something different. I love it!!

You do need to throw yours up here!!

I swore I'd not have another white car. I currently have 3 and have had others in the past. And when I went to order my Countryman I went set to order a Surf Blue or Cosmic Blue.......I ended up with White and a Black top :-) I figured the black top was stepping out enough for me right now.

But those red stripes have me trying to come up with my own variant.....if my car ever comes in that is.

Mine is solid white and plain. That is what the wife wanted and when she is happy, I'm happy. No matter what color or how many stripes, it still drives like a MINI!

What do you think of this one? I like the juxtaposition with the old factory and brickroad...

I went on a MINI rally to the top of Sandia crest in Albuquerque yesterday, and it was amazing! I've driven pretty aggressively now and then, but yesterday was ridiculous. I'm happy to say the CM was keeping up with the little guys quite easily. In fact, the MINI in front of me was starting to understeer around turns and had to slow down, but the All4 stuck to the road just fine!

Nice. Pretty good for stock alignment. Imagine better sways and a semi-aggressive alignment...

You'll stick like glue!!

Sealy - thanks! The crop is better. Don't need no stinkin' Fords in the pic. Nice how you wiped it right out of the picture...

Bigprfed22 & Winchm60 - thanks guys! Is there an emoticon for blushing?

Thanks. I wanted to keep the big round logo when I cropped it, so I just removed all the cars. Except the important one.

Just added the BlackJack sunroof graphic and mirror caps. Looks great and matches Royal Grey/black perfectly.
