Pround new Owner.... Kinda

Just got back from ordering my new S. Big change from a couple weeks ago when I posted that I would be going Dark Silver with Anthricite R99 wheels. Car ordered as follows:

Hyper Blue
White roof
White bonnet stripes
Premium package
Sport package
Cold weather package
17" Web spokes
Panther black leatherette
Anthricite interior.... standard headliner though...
Limited slip
Foglights
Rear foglight
Zenons and DSC come in package obviously
Harmon Kardon audio
Black floormats
Upper invisishield kit

I ordered the car today, and the dealer ended up changing a car already slated for production. I'll get it in 4 to 5 weeks! It goes into production nest week! I'm so excited! My buddy came with me today, and he wants a white one with black stripes. My dad bought a used Cooper a few weeks ago..... red with white roof and white stripes. HAD TO COME HOME AND WATCH THE ITALIAN JOB ON MY BIG SCREEN WITH THE SURROUND SOUND TURNED UP! Can't wait for delivery. I'll post pics as soon as I take delivery!

Congratulations. If your friend gets a white MINI then you all can make your own Italian Job.

True dat! I grew up driving a Bertone (Fiat) X 1/9..... and the Mini is the closest to a daily driver with the same excitement I have come across. My wife and I are drivin' this year! First stop..... Carlisle!
