Love the interior shots, and have played around with the Satellite Gray interior door panels and trim on the configurator, but
It looks more white than gray in your photos and I am concerned with keeping it looking good because the hand and elbow traffic
In that area is bound to show from day one. How do you find that ?

Thanks!! Yeah it's pretty much white. I've only had a couple days so I can't comment on how dirty it gets or how easy or hard it is to clean

Hey R99,

Do you have any pics of the rear (or rear 3/4) of the car? Pre and post-drop?

She's gorgeous.

Thanks,
MidnightF56

Again, I've never seen one lowered that much. I can almost feel the tires rubbing on the fender skirts lol.

They're ESM 004s, 18x8 et 32

I wouldn't recommend it, they don't fit very well in the front. We really need something in the et 35-40 range.


It really doesn't rub too badly, I figured I would have destroyed the front arches by now considering how much the front wheels poke.

I'm thinking about getting an F56 soon-ish, but I can't decide between British Racing Green or Blazing Red.

The choice between the two is easy. You need Volcanic Orange. All the cool kids are driving it.

I wanted a volcanic orange, but settled for a pepper white. It would have clashed with the chili red one in the driveway.

-not a cool kid

I, too, am vexed by this same choice.

My vote is kind'a biased... "Dobby" - delivered 10/7. You can't go wrong with either one.

It was almost a flip of a coin for me -- VO versus BR. Both make the small MINI more visible to others, and what I chose is obvious.

Here's mine--delivered 10/14, graphics installed 10/16.

jetmechinnc--I guess great minds think alike! I don't know where you are, but this has been on the drawing board for about 3 1/2 months now...I really didn't copy yours. As a matter of fact, I was really sweating it when Scotland had their secession vote, because the Union Jack would have been redesigned.

Where ARE you, anyway?

I'd rather be my own person and blaze my own trails. If the F56 had Chili Red, then the choice would have been simpler.

While I'm at it, is it possible to get employee pricing on a Mini, or is that out of the question? Would TrueCar or Costco's car buying program help out?
