Rooster Red Color Line
White Turn Signals
Center Arm Rest
Heated Front Seats
Leatherette: Carbon Black
Premium Package

MINI Connected w/ NAV
Auto-dimming Rearview
JCW Aero Kit

Already changed my order. I decided I really wanted the auto-dimming rearview.

EG/R was my original choice until I saw the PW/R. I still love the EG/R, though. Nice ride.

Thanks!

Phinzup, I've seen some picks of the PW/CR--pretty sweet. I'm sure you'll love it. Any stripes planned?

Nice set of specifications and looking really, really good.

Well thought out and should be a blast to drive.

You looking for an early January delivery?

Congrats.

MINI.uk Configurator

I found some better photos on the MINI.uk configurator. I think it does a better job of correctly illustrating the new Eclipse Gray color.



Better interior renderings also

Yeah, found out today that my JCW should start production on 9 December. I guess that would be week 49. Sweet!

My MINI is shipping out on the Morning Carina! It's now on the manifest so I can track it on the WW site.
