Xanthus-
Congrats, you made it back safely- wonderful.

Me thinks I see a black cooper with white tail lights and checkerboard roof. Alloy Patina dash, Nav, twin rally lights,spoiler, and HK with 5 spoke 16" wheels would me by guess limited to my poor vision. Nice-you just gotta decide on the aero or not.

Coooool!

Always nice to strike another name off the waiting list. Just wish it were my name!

So you're going with the checkered stripes then?

Look at that! My first post!

I am waiting on my order from Downtown MINI. I really haven't had much contact with them outside of walking in and ordering my MCS. How did they treat you? Anything I should pay extra attention to?

Well Sean Costello does not like to do the Cooper Flags decals, other than that they are a great crew.

BTW, save for that he is first rate.
