When we started shopping for a MINI, we looked online and built the car a million times. I remember seeing the orange and saying "No way in h*** would I have a car that color!" Then we saw one in person, and it became "There's no way I would have any other color!" The MA at our dealer said that no one seemed to order the Hot Orange, but if the dealer ordered one for their stock, it never sat on the lot very long.

I wasn't even shopping for a car but I saw a picture of a hot orange mini and needed to have one. There was a couple for sale in the state but I really didn't want a car payment before Christmas. The local dealership got one on a lease return and offered it at a fair price so I got my Hot Orange Mini a few weeks ago. Ya!

Welcome, Mary! Looks like you got a nice MINI-and of course a GREAT color.
If you haven't posted in the 1st Gear section you may want to introduce yourself there, also. Don't be surprised if folks ask for pics of your car. We love admiring other MINIs.
What part of Michigan? We have friends in Grand Rapids. They have a HyperBlue/White MCS.
If you haven't done so, please put a marker on the Hot Orange Frappr Map. There is a link in my sig.

Nice looking HO MCc!! Is that orange tint on your windows? - Nice touch! Good job blacking out ALL the chrome pieces - don't think I've ever seen the door handles in black - looks nice.
Your car looks looooowwww...

N2MINI - I'd like more info on how you wrapped the door handles and a close-up pic if you have one. I've done the grille vinyl blackout project (several times, in fact) but I'm not sure how you wrapped such a curved shape. Was heating of the vinyl required, and did you have to remove the handles form the car? I assume you did, but...
Looking forward to learning more.

HO for Sale!
If anyone's interesting in BECOMING a Hot Orange owner, we're selling one of our two HOs in the "DCMM/for sale" section. Take a peek! He's a real beaut!
(Note: The MINI for sale is not the one listed in my signature line. She's ALL mine!)
