If that is your car Brian, it's a very sweet ride! I wonder why you have to wait until the 9th if it got there the same time as mine. My MA wanted me to pick up Monday night, but that's my daughter's 5th birthday, so I'm picking it up on Tuesday 6/5. Are you getting any dealer add-ons like driving lights, etc?
Shark, unfortunately I have too much to do getting the house and yard ready for my daughter's party, or I would have gladly taken a drive over for you. The dealer is 5 minutes from my job, but 25 minutes from my house.

 

I work for myself, no work, no pay.

I am not in a big rush. Plus they need to sort out the Take Down Test Drive certificate. So I asked for next Saturday.

 

N8,

What does askmini say about your car? Are in OKC?

Brian, I went by the dealer this evening, and if you ordered stripes, I think this is your car. What's the last 3 numbers of your VIN?

 

Joe, we decided to go to the Avon Pavilion for dinner, so we went by the dealer to check out the car. All the cars that just came off the truck seemed to have their right front and rear tow hook covers removed. Must have something to do with how they are loaded on the train, boat, or truck. I do like your white wheels...have seen very few cars with those.

 

haven't called ask mini in a while. Last I heard it was awaiting a ship at the port, but my MA emailed me last week with the expected day that it would arrive in the US and then a hopeful timeframe for it arriving in OKC.

 

Nice... If my Cabrio is fixed this week I will be picking mine up Saturday and trading my cabrio in. If not I need to find an excuse to delay my pick up a little longer.

Maybe I will need to be in OKC for a business trip (I work for CHK).

It looks exactly like what we ordered. The Vin ends 60977.

 

Brian, yep, it's yours...parked in the same location versus when Joe took the pics of his car on Friday.

 

Hopefully we get everything cleared up and pick it up next Saturday. Thanks for the picture.

 

Awesome, glad you got to see your car. When are you picking it up? Good to know that they probably have the tow hook cover. I love the white wheels - as soon as I saw them I knew I'd be getting them. I know I'll be cleaning them every day, but it will be worth it.

 

We will pick it up Friday. As you have probably read on the forum, many of the aftermarket brake pads throw off far less dust than the OEM ones, and our experience on our current car confirmed this.

 

I picked it up tonight, and all I can say is...I'm in love!

 

Does your wife know?

 

Haha, yes, and she's ok with it.

 

Congrats MCJoe!

 

Thanks! This car is amazing!

 

I hear you on the wheels, I thought the same thing as soon as I thought that option, the way it would look so good with the white top, glad to see an actual picture of them and see that they are as nice as I thought, and a free option to boot!

 

Yes, they are so nice, and the thing I've gotten the most comments on so far.

 

Joe, forgot to ask. I assume the tow hook covers were installled when you went to pick up the car?

 

Yes, they must remove them to secure it to the truck.

 

I guess tonight is the night for you, shark?

 

Picked is up this morning, will post photos on the Absolute Black Club thread in a few minutes.

 

Awesome! Can't wait to see your first impressions!

 

We picked up my wife's this morning. She loves it.

I was a little disappointed that they did not have the Navigation code. They will send it on Monday. As long as it works on Monday we will be fine.
