About the white rims. . .

You can switch to a brake pad that doesn't put off nearly as much dust. Will save you a ton of time and frustration. . . .

- ding ding ding - penalty! Attempting to discard chocolate in unfavorable ways. 5 yards and re-submit the post.

Chocolate is not to be wasted on unmentioned orifices. It is to be savored and enjoyed. All M&Ms are to be given to the guy with the white MINI with purple stripes . . .

- OK, game on -

I can only speak for myself, but, as far as I am concerned, you are actually welcome any time

I could not help but add more photos of the Purple People Eater and her current "accessories" :


I also just noticed how great the purple color looks in dxturner's photo (posted above)

This is JIMI in his holiday suit. All the Minis were dressed to look like mice in the Atlanta Christmas parade.

Purple owners input requested

I love the looks of everyone's car. As I await for mine to go into production (Feb 06 - MCSc), I live vicariously through all of you. My question to all you purple owners is, how much chrome is too much for the purple MINI? I'm thinking of getting the R99 polished wheels with the full chrome package...is that too much bling?

Hi everyone! I'm planning to order my MCS early next year - in purple, of course!

I'm glad I found NAM and this purple forum because I've never seen a purple MINI in person and was planning to order one sight unseen. Now that I've seen all the pictures, it just confirms how cool the color is!

Now I just need to decide whether to order it locally (I live in the SF Bay Area) or go out of state to avoid the mark-up.

It's more of a personal choice. I like the PH so much, I wanted as much as possible on the Mini, so I didn't go with the exterior chrome pkg. Plus, I have a bike with alot of chrome and it's a b***h to keep clean.

Wino, I love it!! I've finally seen JIMI's Twin. I knew he was out there...somewhere. I don't think they will ever meet, though, since GA is a long way from Hawaii.
