Very cool thread. I am definitely a huge fan of the Laps Blue/Chili Red combo, as well as the classic Black/Red, but I felt that the dark paint hid the contours and vents. I REALLY wanted the bright polar white that is offered on the Countrymen, but alas, only the Pepper white is available on the F54, and I am not a fan. Therefore, White-Silver with the Red roof won the day. I am still debating how to adorn it with stripes/vinyl (hood/roof and side), as well as playing around with changing the mirror caps, blacking out the chrome, and possibly wrapping the door handles (in black or Black-Jack if I go with the Black Jack caps).
I'm happy with the color combo, but it needs some modifications to help it pop. Black out the chrome and door handles?
Always a huge fan of the two-tone interior; it always adds a little extra class IMO. Therefore, the Satellite Grey seats were required to open up the two-tone dash.

As a member of the Satellite Grey Lounge Leather Clubman Club, I must agree. I get lots of positive comments on how "classy" the interior looks. Usually my wifey is riding shotgun when we get the positive strokes, so I'm never sure if it's the seats or the seat covers that garner the compliments.

I absolutely love those hood stripes and they are what I want on my Clubby (even though they're a couple inches shorter than the hood)! I feel that the red pinstripes would tie the red roof to red grill-bar nicely.

Never considered this until we saw it...
Silver and Red. This is a 2016 just purchased new from showroom. Very nice car replacing a 135i 1M.

Very nice! Where did you get your shifter? Did you get a short throw kit with it as well? The stock throw is just too long imo.

It is a Whalen Shift Machine. Designed the engraving myself - sorta looks like a Tie Fighter. Awesome guy to do business with. Yes, I added a CravenSpeed adjustable short shifter. I ordered a new shift boot, but ended up using the stock boot from the JCW shifter. Looks good and fits perfect on a collar I got from Whalen.
The throw is now nice and short, any leverage lost is offset by weight of ****. Highly recommended.
