Thanks!

Ordered a set of BBS SX 18" with Conti DWS06. Couldn't find a picture of them on an F54, but they look pretty good on the F56. Considered a set of OE 18" Star Spoke Black wheels (and would have opted for these, if I had ordered new), but couldn't rationalize the extra $1,200 (mounted and balanced)...and the SX's have about 13mm lower offset, so they should sit a bit more flush (and make the lack of mud flaps that much more pressing).

3 month update

Blondie still enjoys her F54 everyday.
She drove it on a 2000 mile trip like nothing prefers it over her Porsche 981 what more needs to be said.

Picked it up on the oct 25th from mini of warwick.<br/>S ALL4 <br/>Cold weather<br/>Premium <br/>Auto<br/>Backup<br/>Sensors<br/><br/>Love it so far but definitly needs a chip for some extra power.

Damn nice looking one!
I ordered mine through them, excellent dealer and very competitive pricing (with 0% APR and all the discounts and other haggling = offer I could not refuse).

Mine is on the production floor right now so I am super excited to see it.

Glad someone is showing the F54 some love in the Gen 3 forum. Still waiting on the Admins/Owners/Mods to add not only the new Clubman sub forum but also the new Countryman sub forum. Keep them coming as I totally want a few more ideas to personalize mine. :thumbsup:

Looks great! I came close to picking up that EXACT Clubman about 2 weeks ago. Having just traded in a darker color (and looking for a bit of a change), I ended up going for a substantially similar spec in Moonwalk. Who did you work with there?

Just picked it up monday. Loving every second so far!

Blondie looks like a hoot, and loves that MINI! Just remind her to . . .

I picked up my new Clubman S ALL4 last week. And, so far I'm extremely delighted with the vehicle. As I mentioned previously, it's a huge step forward in terms of refinement and sophistication over my previous MINIs (2008 Cooper S Hardtop and 2012 Clubman S). Yet nothing diminishes the signature MINI "go-cart" handling and feel. There's simply a whole lot less edge and buckboard ride than my other MINIs. In fact, whether it's a case of better tire technology or MINI's new AWD suspension system, or both, even the run-flat tires seem to perform significantly better.

Above and beyond performance, the new Clubman's ergonomics and peripherals (i.e. Bluetooth and audio interface) are finally on par with other premium brands. In addition, the build quality and cabin "bits and pieces" are a marked improvement as well. But, then again, MINI has always possessed an excellent build quality.

Also worth nothing, the LED headlights are an absolute must have option, as they put to shame any previous HID/Xenon system that I've ever experienced.

p.s. Don't know why images upload so screwy on this site?

Anybody having horn issues where it's not going off consistently?

And I'm telling you straight up, we are lovin' our new Clubman S All4 more than we loved that XK... and we loved that XK.

And yes, the color is almost the same metallic burgundy on both cars.

Very nice! The burgundy is stunning. :thumbsup: Congrats.

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.

Thanks, Mini Mania. The liquid silver offsets the burgundy nicely. But the "caviar," which is what Jaguar calls their xirallic metallic burgundy paint, is also quite stunning when the light hits it just right. Any way you slice it, British cars are the bomb:)

Please meet "Lilli"
 

Picked her up last night.....

Congrats, that new blue is popular with the F54.

Congrats, gearhead and welcome to NAM! Love your license plate, I'm guessing you are a craft brew enthusiast? If so, you should visit us in the Northwest. :thumbsup: It seems that's mostly what we all do these days. :nod:

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.

Thanks MiniMania. Yes, you might say the hoppier the better. Here in Virginia, we have a wealth of craft brewers and it seems there are more everyday....

F54
 

Great! Virginia is one of my favorite places, and probably vacationed more there than anywhere, even one of my other faves, Colorado.

Gearhead60, congrats on your delivery! I seriously looked at Digital Blue, but went with Moonwalk Grey. My family had 2 vehicles over the years very similar to that color and had to do something different for me. You caught all the breaks on your build, as we ordered the same day, but mine won't hit Baltimore till 12/4 and then a few more days till it gets to Chicago...grrr! I raise a Scorched Earth Rugged Coalminer in your direction...:thumbsup:

WhatV8, I'm kind of partial to blue cars. The only other color I would have considered is the volcanic orange offered on the hardtop, but alas not offered on the clubman.

Here's a shot from above....don't get the chance too often to do this....

That is a sweet Clubman!

OMG! The "CLUBMAN" is missing!
