Sidetrak,

Congrats! A condition of posting here is a list of specs you know!

You live in a beautiful state and will have a great time in your MINI.

Cheers!

Hi Sidetrak,
I am also new around here. Have had my new 06 PW MCSC for 4 days now! Loving it, LOVING it! Man! do I LOVE it! and this board. I spend so much time here. If I am not driving and home I am basically here. Haven't read a newspaper in days... but I could tell you what's happening w/ Minis! I had no idea what I've been missing...

Holy crap, I never expected such a huge response. Honestly I have been out motoring more than sitting at my computer. I have the forehead sunburn to prove it. Sorry I didn't get everyone filled in on the specs on pics. Here it goes:

2006 Orange Mini Cooper S Convertible
-Premium
-Sport
-Cold Weather
-Convenience
-Chrome Exterior
-Aux port for iPod Nano <- Which fits perfectly in middle armrest BTW

I really was not planning on getting all of those options. After looking through the dealer's stock, I asked them what was coming in and they had this orange number coming next week. It must have been meant to be, it was the color I wanted!

I'm getting my bonnet strips tomorrow. So now is time for a survey. On an orange Mini, what color bonnet strips would you go with:
White w/Black or
Black w/White
