Very nice! I'll be less then a mile away from the ship on May 22 in NJ for a festival lol. In hoping just after Memorial Day we will be getting the cars. Question .. Are you planning on adding the JCW PRO scuttles or caps?

No...for now I'm keeping my S pretty stock. I have some cocomat samples and an iPhone adapter waiting for my MINI to arrive. And it seems likely I'll swap out my dash surface for something different - I'm not thrilled with the black checker but the silver ones came with a silver door bezel which I don't like against the Satellite Grey doors.

Don Juan just appeared off the coast of Halifax.

And re: quickave...I actually never have named any of my cars. Don't know why...just never have. The closest I've come is that I think of my current car and it's predecessor (a 2011 Toyota Highlander Hybrid and a 2006) as the Swiss Army Knife - seats 7, tows my 3500lb Bambi, gets 25-27 MPG, and doesn't drive horribly for a people mover.

1st up I'm looking to change my dash surface...probably to something silver-y. Also thinking about some cocomats to relieve the unrelenting pit of blackness that is the standard MINI footwell.

And I hope FL lets you pick up your MINI soon...
