Boy, in that picture your Mini looks smaller. I have to say the more I see your car the more I want a Justa. I am also enjoying watching you make changes, all things that make it a better sports car.

If you want to add a bit more pop to the interior check out the JCW floor maps in the pictures in my gallery. Really accents the red color line.

This is my first choice too. Minus rally lights and with white stripes instead of black and light-colored wheels. Please post more pics. I'm debating white vs red. Love them in both colors and can't make up my mind. I think red one might get old soon, neutral colors have better longevity, imo. And are probably cooler in hot months.

I did see your pictures of the floor mats and plan to get them. They definitely add more pop to the interior

Here are a few more pics I have of the car and I'll try to get some more for you. I don't have a side profile pic at the moment so stay tuned.

Seems like you have a really great camera, your pictures look crystal clear and neutral in colors... So I think this is the most accurate representation of pepper white F56 that I've ever seen. The pics posted by dealers looked really scary and I started having doubts, but damn, your car here looks soooo sweet...

Are those extra lights installed in the factory, by the dealer, or by yourself? It looks wrong when they do not match the position of the hood stripes, of you get what I mean?

Bought this mini on 28 Jul. My first one and loving the car. Just did a detail to remove fine scratching in the paint (typical dealer prep). 2014 MCS, midnight black metallic, JCS steering wheel, Mini connected XL and wired package, navigation XL, moon roof, auto transmission. Also, has those stupid green mirror caps and scuttles. I'm gonna change them to carbon fiber.

^Nice! Looks sharp.

Meet Rupert. Gave him a British name given his heritage. Cruised up Mulholland drive today and waved at another f56 driver. First Mini and after 3 days of ownership I see what the fuss is all about. So. Much. Awesome.

Were you there this morning, and anywhere near Las Virgines / Kanan Dume Rd? If so the SoCal Mini Manias were caravanning to our First of the Month Breakfast at Coogie's. Did the other driver wave back? I recall seeing a nice blue F56 who wasn't with us. Was it you?

HAH!!!! YES I WAS! What a small world...

Here's a link to the official SCMM website where you can pay a one time only (very reasonable) fee to join the group and get a bag of goodies, and access to their forums where they have a calendar of events, etc.. (You'll also get a newsletter monthly of event summaries, coupons, etc).

http://www.scmm.org

This was my first event with them and it was a blast. We had close to between 20-30 MINIs at Coogie's for breakfast, and this was a relatively small turnout, I was told because many were at Mini takes the States.

Super nice bunch of people.

Feel free to PM me if you have questions since I'm a newbie to all this like you!

Ordered it nearly 3 months ago! Got damaged in transit so it was delayed by 3 weeks. All because a scratched door sill I was finally told.

I'm using ghetto floor mats till I'm able to get some speedwell blue ones!
