R50/53 Can't make up my mind!
#1
Hello everybody,
I'm glad I found this place.
I've wanted a Mini S for a long, long time. 2 weeks ago I convinced my wife to go with me for a test drive. She fell in love right away (very important) and we bought it. We're trading in our 1997 Integra GSR. We live in the city so I dropped the sport package and got everything in it except the wheels. I figured the 16" wheels would be better on these streets. I hope I'm right.
It took us a while to decide on colors. We settled on Silver and black. I've changed my mind everyday since then. One day it's red and white (or maybe black?) and another day it's black and white and then back to silver. It better arrive soon or I'll go nuts.

Thanks all,
I know when I see our MCS we will love it. I wonder if there is a point before which you can change the colors? I'll call and ask. Then the can of worms really gets opened. I think my car is "on order" so it's early in the process. It's a long waiting game - isn't it. From reading the posts here it seems that the waiting becomes integral to the whole Mini experience. The marketing guys do a brilliant job bringing our Minis to life.
Any thoughts on how much of a perfomance hit you take switching from 17" to 16" tires?
