Actually it just occurred to me that the post reply button is basically the same color as Horizon Blue.

You know, I thought about that as I was reading other posts too.

Honestly, I have so many people, MINI owners and non-MINI owners, compliment the color. I have non-MINI friends who think it's a navy blue, others who call it a light blue (the sunlight really changes your perspective IMHO), and MINI friends who say, "what color is that?", "I want my next MINI to be that color". It' so different in color than anything else MINI has done that it always turns heads.

Hi, I'd like to join the club as well. Picked up my '10 HzB at the end of January.

Only up to about 600 miles so far, and it's killing me ;-)

I replied to your post "Please give us a picture of your new MINI and when you got it and I will add you to the list.
Enjoy."
I never saw the reply so I must have missed you. Sorry. What was your pick up date?

Picked up my HzB/HzB MC on 28 January and absolutely love it! The color really caught my eye... Funny, this is my first blue car. Never really cared for blue until I saw "Darwin" sitting on the lot.

The SS/W MINI in the photo is our "Daisy." She was our first MINI and I was so impressed with her that I went the following week and adopted Darwin.

Please add me to the club!

new HzB droptop on order

New to the forums. Have my new HzB droptop on order and in production. Expected production complete 4/13 (woo hoo!) then the agonizing wait to get on a transport, etc, etc.

These past few gorgeous New England days, just ripe for top-down riding, have ratcheted my anticipation to the point I can barely stand to wait another day. The sunroof on my 2008 MCS hardtop is a poor substitute, but it'll have to suffice for now.

I'm IN da Club!

2010 HZB JCB. The Mini seems like it wants to be named 'Jake' so I'll probably run with it.

Photos to come shortly (want to post something better than a Blackberry photo.)

Now if I could only get off work to go drive...

Nice looking rides! I think I'll be picking mine up Friday, if all goes according to Hoyle. I can't wait! Faust docks at NY tonight after midnight, according to the schedule.
