Ordered my MINI Today!!!

I finally placed my order.

'07 Cooper S
Dark Silver
Black roof
Rooster Red/Black Seats
Rooster Red color line interior
Premium
Cold Weather
Sport Suspension
DSC
Limited Slip
Anthracite Headliner
HiFi Stereo
White turn signals
Black front grille surround
16" Bridge Spokes with all-season tires for this winter
Will get a 17" set of some type with summer tread for next year and the track season

Black Stripes with outer red pinstripes, only they will go all the way to the bottom, and the red will go over the top, just like this:





This interior, except with the standard checkerboard trim:



Can't wait!!!

That's going to be one car worth the wait! Congrats, and feel free to obsess about how slow time crawls while waiting for your MINI. There is a time warp factor involved once the order is placed!

I am driving a '93 Chevy Blazer in the meantime.. The Mini will feel like a slot car when it arrives in early December!

SweeeeeeT!...

Interesting...no LSD for track season?

I'm bad....noticed that LSD was spelled out vs. abbreviated.

This will be a GREAT ride.

I'm jealous. Wish I could time warp and reorder mine. I was so clueless about mini coopers when I got mine.

I wish I had the white signal indicators on mine. Otherwise, I love it.

The dealer has a guy that can do anything you want. Very similar capabilities and skill as Aesthetic Creations, etc.

I am hoping to find someone with a Chili Red that is willing to swap the mirror caps and possibly the bonnet scoop.
