Just joined the F56 Club, my new Iced Chocolate!

I'll be spending all of my time in the F56 thread so I just wanted to say Hi to you all and introduce myself and my new F56.

Here are the highlights of my new Mini:
2016 Mini Cooper S
Iced Chocolate Brown w/ Black Roof, Stripes, Mirrors and Rims.

Premium Package
JCW Interior Package
Wired Package
Steptronic
Rear Spoiler
Piano Black
Heated Front Seats
White Turn Signal
Tint
No LED's (This will be one of the big projects when the kit gets released)

MSRP - $31,700
Price Paid - $26,950 +taxes and fees (It's a long story how I got this deal)

Anyway, she's been awesome and I am heading to NM Engineering today to get a Power Module installed and soon I will be painting those calipers red, which I think will look great.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Great Car.... Looks Smokin'.....
What's the background city?


Mine is still on the ship. May pick up this weekend, or next week. Fingers crossed.

Congratulations! I am a big fan of that color. It just looks so good and it'll definitely accent well with the red calipers.

Congratulations!! that is a beauty! -- Don't forget to pick a good set of floor mats to keep that floor pristine -- and it looks you have the same wheel/tire set than I? Are those 16" victory blacks?

With the calipers red the JCW bonnet stripes would be prefect!

My wife is not going to be happy with the suggestion. That's a great idea, I'll head over on Monday haha.

Definitely my favorite color for the F56. NM module is a lovely bump in daily driving on the low setting.
