>>And I think that's the main reason why BMW puts it on the MINI.

>>My cruise control works fine. I've used it maybe 3 times in 2 years (the first couple of times just to see if it worked).

I love cruise control, particularly on freeways as it is a good way to prevent speeding tickets. In mid-June, heading up to Road America for the June Sprints, Wisconsin cops have themselves a FIELD DAY nailing racer boys.....Madame Treasurer and I pretend we are "Milton and Ethel" on the way to Green Bay, put that baby on 2 miles over the limit and get to the track and out of the state safely....... :smile:

Oooh, oooh, are those Panasports? 16"? Where did you get them, JerseyGirl? That classic look is the reason that I got the S-Lites. I am sure that is the case for most of us that got them. It surely wasn't weight savings....
I should have ordered it with the standard (for the S) V-spokes and ordered the Panasports and had them mounted from the start. Oh well. Maybe one day I will spring for new wheels and tires and get them then.
Cheers!

i had heard that you can not order IB anymore. i know they are doing away with the color, not that i understand why, but they are. so if you want one you need to act fast or "try" to find one on a lot somewhere. good luck.
