Congrats on your order...or more properly, congrats to your wife, and good on ya for treating her so well!

I just took delivery of my spec ordered JCW 3d HT last Saturday, and I haven't stopped smiling since. Waiting nearly six weeks from order to delivery was tough, but oh so worth it!

You'll both love it.

Yah! I'm excited and she laughs at me saying that she feels that I'm more excited than her. I would imagine the factory order would be about 2-3 months until arrival. Now the hard part, should I trade in the Countryman as the dealer was giving me $7000 CAD for it, or should I just keep it around for winter? (practical part of me says to get rid of it whether it is to trade it in or to sell it privately to get more out of it)

Hunting for some OEM 17" track spoke rims to use for winter tires.

Rest assured, photos will come when I get them. I gotta figure out how to track the factory order again, whether it is to call BMW Canada with the production number or a VIN to know it's status. Then I gotta figure out how to track which vessel it is on when it leaves the port and track it arriving to Halifax. Wow I am obsessed. I did this when I factory ordered my 2er lol.

Took ownership on Friday Oct 19, 2018. The drive home was absolutely amazing. The handling of this peppy little car and the performance is as expected.

This is my wife’s daily car and I am am a little envious. PS, I drive a 2016 BMW M235i 6MT.

Thanks for sharing the pics. How do you like it thus far? Did you get the pro exhaust w/remote? I just picked mine up last night. .It came in this past week. Black with chili red roof and mirrors red trim inside. Can't wait to take it around town.

Congrats to your wife on her new car. The MINI logo on the sides of the car. Was that a option from the dealership or did you add as after market?

If you referring to the one projected on the ground, I belive that it's standard now.
