It's here!
 
Truck delivered it to the dealer today, they'll prep it and tint the windows and in a few days I'll bring it home. Yay!

Nice, you will be motoring in style. Picking it up on Wed/Thursday? :)

Are you keeping the 03? Track car or canyon runner? Opps, I forgot KC! You do have some nice rolling hills around KC. :sly: :)

Tsar Feb 15, 2009 08:51 AM

Congrats, why do you have to wait to pick it up?

NeuroticRobot Feb 15, 2009 11:40 AM

I am beginning to think the Clubman looks best with body color roof.

Color matched roof and roof rails, FTW! I'm outfitting my rack as we speak.

Otra Feb 17, 2009 04:21 PM

Looks beautiful! Nice choice and please - once you take your Clubman home and get more photos - post to the Flickr Pool - see my signature line.:nod:

Agree that the body colored roof looks great... Dlpruk AKA David always did say so.:wink: :grin:

MINIdave Feb 21, 2009 10:14 AM

congrats... love the color

Thanks all, this is a Lazer blue/Lazer blue Clubman S and so far it's been perfect. No issues, noises or problems of any kind. No swirls in the paint or scratches, chips etc and it came with everything I ordered. Let me again give high marks to my dealer - Baron MINI in KC - they are an exemplary dealership. Easy to work with and they really try to do the job right!

I'm pretty impressed with the mileage so far - no, I'm not pushing it yet much - but I drive pretty much the same route as always and its getting 35 or so!

The paint is pretty, but the metallic tones really light up in bright sunlight. I have an Electric Blue/EB '03 Cooper S JCW too , and I again wanted something bright so that I'd easily be seen in traffic by those SUVs and pickemup trucks without going to Red, I think this works well enough!:nod:

I really like the "mood lighting" a typical MINI fun difference - I know other cars have this, but do they also have "sconces" on the B pillars? :grin:

Oh, and I don't mean to offend, but no - my wife wears real fur, not faux........

Casey Jones Feb 25, 2009 09:34 AM

beautiful~:thumbsup:

Hooray Clubman!
