05 Mini coming soon

Just thought i would drop in here and leave a little note about my 05 MCS I'll be getting soon

BEP/W (Purple Haze isn't a real color )
Performance Package
Sport Package
Anthracite Headliner
Anthracite Interior
HK Stereo
Gray/Black Leatherette Seats
White Rims
Chrono Pack
Chrome Pack

Think thats everything thats coming with my as yet unnamed Mini. Suposed to pull into California on Sept 2 and then I'll just be waiting for Mason to ship it over here to Hawaii.

regalic,

Aloha and welcome to NAM. Good to hear from you.
Let us know when you come up with a name. Your MCS sounds great the way you've speced it out.

White rims? Just think about changing the brake pads to something less dusty. Maybe EBC green or Mintex redbox would be fine. The Mintex are about half the price of the EBC pads.

Changing brake pads is a very good suggestion and a very easy DIY install.

As for a Sept. 2 delivery in CA, that would probably mean your car will be landed in HNL and prepped by the first week of October. Don't forget to get the car tinted. If you have a sunroof, you can also tint that with limo tint to keep out the heat.

A name for your car? What about Jimi, for Jimi Hendrix and Purple Haze fame.

Yes, excellent.

And for a theme song for Jimi the MINI select from:
besides the obvious "purple haze"
Wild Thing
Crosstown traffic
Voodoo chile
Pali gap
Hey Joe
Third Stone from the Sun.... and more if you can remember them.

Don't forget to blast Jimi's Star Spangled Banner with the HK system. An American flag roof graphic would round out the package.
