Followup to above--can I have #700? That would match my Houston BMWCCA Autocross number...

The Chili Red Owners Club (CROC)

Fantastic, I am in. Nothing faster than a Super Hot Chili Pepper Cooper! The look is stock but it's not...

CROC Membership

Request a membership number for the CROC...

My second MCS is a CR/CR 2006. It's got only 1156 mi, but I've installed a Milltek and an R-speed rear sway...
Preferred numbers are:
369 sounds cool...
708 (first boat)
779 (current boat)
1966 (birth year)

Thanks,
Rich

Chili Red Inductee

I'm not sure if I have the right pedigree for such an exclusive club but I do have a Chile Red and White MCS, my first. Will that get me in the "Club"?

I just bought it the other week. It is practicaly brand new, 4600 miles, in mint condition, never saw rain or snow and it was in Michigan. Now it is in sunny California.

Beside being Chile Red/White w/white mirrors, it has the Sport, Convience, and Cold Weather Pkg, two tone gray & blue leather, Harmon Kardon, 6sp MT, sunroof, computer, Anthracite dash, fog front & rear and more. It's great fun!

Although I'm not a big sticker fan I just might get one for this Hot pepper.

can I join too?

early 2003 build MCS CR/CR, premium pkg w/panther black leather.

Good to see I'm not the only Red Roofer here!

ChrisO, mine was purchased in 8/05 also in pristine condition with under 7,500K. I actually met the original owner by accident a year later - dude traded it in for an M5, so it wasn't b/c he didn't like the car, he just wanted, er, more. Too rich for my blood, and his loss was my gain anyway, lol. I'm just about to turn 40k and I still love it as much as the day I got it.

Although I have not met my original owner there is an interesting story to the car. The original owner was one of the Jacuzzi Brothers who, apparently, owned 60+ vehicles. After ordering the Mini, they way he wanted it, he drove it for 4600 miles or so then decided to sell it along with a few other vehicles. Even though the car was purchased in Michigan it has never been in rain or snow and was trailered out to Calif in a covered van. So she is a real virgin to foul weather. She in beautiful shape and I hope to keep her looking fine for time I have her. She was registered in 4/04.

Well obviously you have to be a chili red mini owner, second ask for a number here in this thread, and third get your sticker (well that's optional).
