MiniMeg,

What color are the door panels in Sidewalk? I love the color of the leather and just wish it had been available for the MCS. Great car!

Door panals are anthrasite on black. Seats are English Malt. I have to take some good interior pics, I'll post em soon.

Count me in. My "Gingerr" was born in December. She's #2 in our 2 mini family. I also get loads of compliments on the color (inside and out).

I'd love to join! I'm new. Is this an official thing? How do you get to use the badge on your signature?

So, all this begs the question... how many Sparkling Silver MINIs are there in the DC area? Besides mine of course. Speak up!

It's (finally) home.. I am so stoked about this car..

I knew I'd like it, but after driving it 160+ miles from the dealer in Winston-Salem to my home, all on twisty 2-lane back roads, I gotta say that this car is the first car I've owned in a long time that really gets my juices flowing. Of course I had to drive it home in a torrential downpour, so being the dedicated Mini owner that I now am, I had to knock the dirt off of it when I got it to the house.

This is one very cool car.. No regrets.

My new mini just got off the boat in Charleston and should arrive here in about a week! I saw it on the first day I went to the dealership and knew it was the color I wanted. I know our dealer has sold at least 2 others in SS, but one left the state.

Mini arrived last Thursday, and I've gotten great comments about the color. I love it, but better yet, driving is a blast! But it doesn't look like the name in the door panel lights up---maybe that is an option I didn't get!

Sign me up too!!

I'm so glad someone is starting a SS club! Seriously, how do we get the graphics and badges? We need graphics for the Cabrio!

I'm totally into this!
