Lets just Merge the threads, there would hardly be any post overlap if we did.

Fading away is out of the question....

By fading away, I did indeed mean that the threads should be merged..... specifically under the title of Dark Silver Owner's Club.

Arrived three days early...i'm speechless. I've had a constant grin on my face since i picked it up 8 hours ago...I absolutely love the color. Wasn't sure i'd like the dark silver/silver because i'd never seen it in person but I absolutely love it!

Thanks. Yah, i kinda picked the color at random 'cause i couldn't decide. Figured since it's a US-only combination why not. I'd seen very few photos, was really leaning toward the Royal Grey, but ever since I saw the GP, I figured it was really the silver combination with the Darkish Silver that I liked. I'm sure you'll love it when you get it...I know I do!

Rick, quick question,

I know this is very off-topic, and I'm sure it's been answered many times already, but why did you get rid the the center exhaust?

I like to be different, plus the Rspeed cooper exhaust is one of the best designed and manufactured exhausts for the MINI i have ever seen. the S sounds insanely different with a Cooper exhaust on it too...

Im going to be converting over to an exhaust that exits on the driver side now in a few days. I might go fit up the muffler tonight actually...

I'll get pics of that one when its all done.
