^leather - makes it very nice after your mini has rolled over and you're crawling out on the ceiling...

Anybody have a lead of a picture of a BEP (Black-Eye Purple)- the one in the title link doesn't look like the swatch, and I need to decide if I rush to get an '04 IB, or stall to get an '05BEP! Don't even see mention of that color on motoringfile.

LOL Eric!! I guess I won't be needing an alcantera headliner as I have no plans to roll my MINI!

BTW, if you follow the link, then click on 'customisation' on the left, you will see a whole car in BEP. It's a picture of it at night, so it may not be the best example, but it's the only one I've seen so far of a whole car.

well depends how much more everything will cost. does it go up 2.5% like someone said? How long will be the wait? If I was buying a mini for the first time. I would wait for the new model even it cost a bit more............BTW I love my mcs 04..........


happy motoring

Alcantara is a synthetic suede material. It looks awesome on the roof, but yes, its just for looks, unless you are upside down

I got my 2005 MINI on order with a $150 price increase. However, that was because I placed my order in early April for the 2005! So I don't know if any dealers will be willing to make that deal - but you can always try. I'm in DC and ordered from MINI of Sterling.
