If I didn't get the deal I got I would have run, too.
Hopefully, a few years down the line, I'll have some extra cash & pick up a used CR & return. I still think iCR IS the true Mini classic color. Good luck all!

You CAN'T resign...once a CR owner, always a CR owner...you're stuck here, even if you dont have your car anymore, haha. Congrats on the new JCW, btw.

Anyways has anyone gotten this and can he/she show a better picture of what the finished product looks like? Curious...

EricB,
Click on the Gallery at the top right of this reply - this may be a better photo - I had the red trim option. They fitted this through the US dealer. It looks great in real life!

Welcome to CROC

Hey All! As you can see from my sig, I am soon to become the proud owner of an 06 CR/B MCS/JCW! He hits US soil in Charleston, S.C. this afternoon!!! I see the CROC numbers have hit 203 (ladybugmc I think). I'm guessing you can't get a # out of order or pre-claim a number so I'll keep watching in the hopes that I can "sign up" right after 209 so I can be # 210. Kind of matches with the JCW thing and all. I don't know if anybody else is eyeing the same but I'll go read past posts so I'm not creating a problem. Look forward to becoming a CROC!

Unless you could swap (make) me #210 for #190 when it comes up(he says sheepishly) If not, never mind.
Sorry, but until this thing is in my garage, I'm out of my mind, nuts, insane,gaa-gaa or just plain crazy!!!

Yeah It's official CROC #203 Thanks. I'll post some pics of my baby soon. I'll look for fellow CR clubers during MTTS. We are doing C-ville to the end as of right now.

No prob, you can have 210

...and I noticed I spelled your name wrong, so it's now fixed.

I would love to join too! Though originally I went in wanting a DS or AB after a year and a half of driving the IMP I am so happy I went with CR. I love the looks she gets. She is true to her name she is a little red hot!

I would love number #0136 or #1360 for a close match to my motoring ID and all that since #136 straight is already taken.
