Just placed my order!

OK !! I just ordered a JCW Clubman. Midnight Black/Black Roof/Tuscan leather, all 3 packages, Zenons, roof rails, rear fogs ....

This is our 2nd Mini (my wife has an 09 JCW Convertible) so I guess you could say we love them!

I don't have a production # yet, but the MA estimated about 6 or 7 weeks for delivery.......can't wait!

nice, enjoy!

I assume you also got the black c pillars. Just be aware that the midnight black body is a different black then the c pillar black. It is a small difference, but noticable. My friend has a clubman with this combo, and it dosent look bad per say, but it does cause a bit of a double take.

regardless, I have all the options too and love it. The seat heaters and the comfort access are the best. I love being able to lock the car while its running when i stop for my AM coffee.

you ordered at a good time and while your lead time may seem long, it really isnt. congrats!

Sounds good, but, it's Xenon, a Nobel gas, atomic #54, just below Krypton, and above Radon..

I'm pretty sure I ordered the "Zenons"...a previously undiscovered gas that produces light that travels at 186,007 miles per second....thus throwing the entire space/time continuum into cross-dimensional pulsations, causing the driver to experience deja-vu AND the Groundhog Day effect! I have already taken delivery of the car and experienced the seemingly interminable wait several times since I specified those damnable Zenons!

Does the radio now play "I Got You Babe" every morning?

Can Clark Kent safely ride in a car with Krypton headlights?

With your tips from the future what stock choices should we all make?
