Ok all, here's the deal. I got a call today from Long Beach MINI.
Seems they have in (as of this afternoon anyway) an MCS DS/BLK fully loaded. Just like I plan to order. The only difference is I was planning on getting the all black leather and this one has the Lapis Blue (it also has bonnet stripes, which I can live with, even tho' I wouldn't have ordered them)
So my question is, for those that have each, Any regrets? Love it, Hate it? Does the blue look like it is wearing well? Does the black scuff easily? I am seriously considering going down there tomorrow and checking it out, if it is still there......
Any leather issues? (and not the studded collars and whips kind of issues)

Thanks!!!!
Motor On
Kevin
