My turn to hop on. Got mine last month off the lot for a song since it was an '06 sitting amongst the '07's. Silver-Gray and Black Leatherette, Premium and Sport packages. Having a blast so far and plenty of plans ahead.

Thanks.

The English leather is sooo nice. Very smooth and smells so good. Comfy too. I now have 20% tint all around now, will post new pics soon.

I thought I was crazy for the longest time after I bought mine, the astro black definately has a blueish tint to it and I thought I was the only one seeing it!

Here's a semi-recent photo. Since then, I've put the summer tires back on and blackened out the belt line.

lol it's definitely blue. When I went to the dealer and asked for black, I was directed to an Astro Black car. I looked at my MA and said "I asked for black -- not silvery dark blue."

Well, I played with the Checkmate package a bit and came up with this (which I've since removed, but may reinstall, it's only vinyl...)

A few updates in the last year. I've dropped down to 16" wheels, blacked out the belt line, added white mirror caps and put on about 12k miles.

I guess I'm semi-new to the club
There are more pics of her in my gallery, feel free to check it out!

I modeled Scarlett "Coop" after "Coop".
I guess you could consider her to be "Coop's" sister

My new MCS, AB/AB with chrome line (int/ext), is currently sitting on the dock in Southampton waiting to be placed on a ship. This will be my first, and I cannot wait!!! Is it too soon for me to join the AB MINI Owners Club?
