6-speed manual, white silver, red roof/mirrors, JCW bonnet stripes, Dinamica Leather combo, Premier + pkg, power folding mirrors, Piano Black exterior trim, Dynamic Damper Control, 18" two-tone Course wheels perf RFT tires.
Sadly, Harmon Kardon is on indefinite restriction due to the chip shortage. BMW Group Canada is a client of mine and I've been told that there is no point waiting for it at this point as there is no ETA.
Oh well, you shouldn't get a JCW for the sound system, but rather for the performance. I have the BOSE system in my Porsche C4S, and almost never listen to it...engine and exhaust is better than anything coming over the airwaves!
Update: Harmon Kardon has been added to November production and is now part of my build.
Current '16 MCS officially goes to my daughter; she kidnapped my car months ago!

Great, I've got a Production Number, no further than that as of yet. If mine comes without a H/K system in it, they can sell it to someone else.

Reason: Misspelling
Moonwalk Grey with red trim. I had picked out JCW Rebel Green + Red, but my wife was worried it would look like a Christmas present. She also insisted on the stripes. Here's a pic the day after I got the car last month. It was at a local BMW Car Club meet.

I agree with your wife, so I went with Rebel Green + White, but had the side mirrors painted Chili Red ... nice accent, but a bit more subdued. Nice car!
Stunning color scheme. Do you mind sharing where you got those bonnet stripes? I received my JCW in March and that wasn't available from factory, only the solid black or solid red. I ended up getting it without stripes for now but have been looking for those JCW style colors for the countryman.
In response to a previous post from 8/2021, Connaught Green color code is GN18 and Rebel Green is C19. They are not exactly the same color. Rebel is a tribute color to Connaught. If they were the same they’d have the same color code.
Picked her up on Friday Dec 31st! Pictured with its 17" winter wheels/tires. 18" two-tone course wheels with performance tires are in-storage until spring.
Connaught Green after polishing. Fantastic shine! John MIchael Coopers signature adds a little as well.
Nice! Going thru this thread and seeing this pic reminded me of a pic I took about 12 years ago. Had just spent about 10 hours washing, polishing with my r/o buffer using 3 pads and 4 polishes, then waxing my Jet Black MCS convertible.
