You should have seen the dealer I bought mine from. They had 4 BRG MINI's in different flavors for sale on the lot. I think my dealer has a soft spot for this color.

I'd like to join! I'd like to join! I'm the proud new owner of a 1.5-month old BRG MCS. His name is Robin, and we're very much in love.

The decision to go green was so easy. It's the *being* green that's hard, I hear. (Note our cars' names, lol.)

I'm soon to be the proud owner of a BRG/B MCS. As I scroll through the posts, I'm not finding many. Where are all of them? Are we a unique species?

Can I play too?
Just picked up an 03 BRG/W MCS yesterday. Premium, Sport and Cold Weather. Having a little trouble adjusting to the 6-spd (vs 5-spd) but this is one very nice car!

Well the wait for my BRG/W is coming to a close. Arrived at the Port Hueneme VDC on the 14th should be here any time now. Then I will be an official BRG/W owner.
Thanks for all the great picture to view. I hope that everyone has a Great Thanksgiving!!!!

Just got the call this afternoon. KPMINI is on a truck enroute to the dealer, should be any day now. They are expecting, due to the holiday, arrival on Friday or Saturday. It could be sooner though.
I think the waiting has just gotten worst.
Happy motoring in the best color there is.

Got it today. Could not wait for the 45 minute drive to pick my son up from school.

I got a little worried when I was supposed to pick it up this weekend and they said it was delayed until early December because it had a scratch found at the distribution center that needed repainting. I followed up the next day and it had already left the distribution center and I got it 2 days late.

Yo BRG boys,

Can't wait to join the gang(green). My BRG/b w/ bonnet stripes should be delivered in a few weeks.

Here's some shiftknob ideas:

And the 6 ball is a perfect way to represent the 6 spd manual.

I guess by saying that these are shift ***** is a bit misleading, but I'm pretty sure you can do this:

1. buy the 6 or 14 ball from this ebay seller:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Professional-REP...QQcmdZViewItem

2. then send the pool ball to Whalen ( http://www.whalenshiftmachine.com/home.htm ) and I'd think that they could take it from there.

You may want to contact Whalen (or another company that sells shift *****) FIRST to make sure it's something that they can/will do.

BRG Update!!!!

Well I just wanted to update all the other BRG owners out there. I am having a blast with KPMINI, best decision for a vehicle I made. KPMINI has exceeded everything I was expecting.
I have tinted my windows and added a clear bra I do not plan on modding yet, there will be some in the future.
I hope my fellow BRG owners have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Happy Motoring.
