Notice the added chrome side vents on my wife's Cooper. We have done a few mods to enhance the chrome look: chrome side vents, clear side markers (instead of yellow), and turn signal bulbs that do not make the signals look yellow when they are not on. . . I think it gives it a very clean and fresh look!

Purple Haze is being discontinued!
From motoringfile today:
"As the MINI Plant in Oxford gets ready to switch over to production of the new MINI later next year, expect availability of some options to change. Specifically we’ve learned that Black Eye Purple (Purple Haze in the US), Liquid Yellow and Solar Red will be discontinued from April production onward. We should see a few other changes later in the year as well."

All I want for Christmas is my M.I.N.I....
She's on her way! Jeff71 and I are anxiously awaiting Saphira to leave Port Hueneme at some point this week and head down to the dealership. She's Purple Haze/White Roof with Black Leather/Anthracite Interior. She has cold weather, convenience, premium and sport packages...so we've got a full toggle board! We ordered her in October and have been on pins and needles ever since. We'll post pictures when she arrives!

BTW: I don't know if anyone is interested in MINI collectibles, but if you are, you know PH is hard to find. I started a thread in the collectibles forum and would love to be PMd if anyone finds any interesting PH models/toys/etc...

In the mean time, any more Purple MINIs out there for me to ooogle??

Look through PurplePeopleEater's gallery and there are a lot of photos from different angles (you just have to get through a few pages of cat pictures to find them)

I'm not going to let roof color stop me from finally getting the MCS I want.
