I have the CR/B combo with CF kit and no stripes. It looks killer IMO. The black roof shows dirt and water spots more than any other color so be aware of the extra spit shinning involved.

I'm waiting for my 2009 MCS Chile Red to go into production. Got a number a week ago. Does anyone know if the plant is shutting down for vacation in August?

bamatt,,, I want to thank you for the job you're doing keeping CROC going !!!.
We have a lot of new members, people with great taste I might add.
Do you know of any apparel with the new design and costs that we can afford ? The old stuff is ridiculously priced.
If anyone has any ideas please submit them.

Mark

So I just got back from the dealer, officially ordering my 2010 Chili Red MCS. Doesn't go in production until Sept, but would like to join CROC now if I may. I see that #911 isn't taken, so I would like to be #911 if I may (sentimental).

With rare exception I've subscribed to the Graucho Marx school of club's. "I don't want to be a part of any club that would have me as a member"

CROC would be one of those exceptions. I've resisted but I keep getting pulled to this posting..... sign me up......any number will do!

As you can see below I've considered myself a unoifficial member for some time now!

We just got our CR/B JAC Cabriolet on 7/18 and we've not stopped smiling yet! We'd love to join the CROC and it would be sweet if Skoshi (means 'little' in Japanese) could be #1106.

Also, I'm having trouble finding a CROC grille badge with the cabriolet sitting on the checkerboard (not the one with the crocodile). Any help?

We look forward to joining up with a local motoring club around our area -- Upstate of South Carolina-Greenville. Suggestions?

Thanks!

Newbie saying hi

I'm new to this site but been a chili red convertible mini owner for almost three years.

I'm trying to find some great reviews of the different types of windscreens out there. I've gone thru two of the factory ones at 450 a pop (seen them online now for $275).

Anyone out there tried any of the following windscreen solutions?https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...0/118_1900.JPG
or http://www.windblox.com/styles/bmw_mini_cooper.htm
or http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Best-...QQcmdZViewItem

I've had my Chili Red Cooper, "coopdawg" for two weeks now. I'd love to be added to the club.

If 623 or 0623 is available, I'd love to have either number.

Thanks!

So has the CROC thing kinda died off? Not seeing much activity anymore, and no one getting to "join".

I was wondering the same thing. What has happened to our CROC administrator Bamatt? Hope that all is well...

I too would like to join as I have a CR/W JCW on order as of 8-1-09.

Please add me to the list (any number will do) so that I can claim membership in this most illustrious of Owners Clubs! Chili Red rules!

Looks like her last post on the board was 8-30, so she's been around. Hope she comes back.

Chili Red with Sport Stripes...

Can we get a few pix posted of CR units with the Sport Stripes. I want to change my stripes but a few pix would help solidfy the decision
