dooky's New Midnight Black MCS

Hello Everybody...
Just picked up my mini off the lot last saturday. I got a great lease deal w/ zero down (under $400/month). What surprised me the most was the fact that they discounted almost $2000 off of MSRP. I guess they needed to get rid of them before the 2010's came out.
On the flip side, the only bad thing is... since it was off the lot, I didn't get some options I would have liked. But for the most part, its pretty loaded.

My Mini Specs:
Midnight Black / White Roof
Premium / Convenience (with bluetooth & USB ipod) package
LSD
Rear Fog Lamps
Punch Leather Carbon Black Seats
Center Armrest
Chrome Line Interior
Dark Grey Colorline
Piano Black Interior
Anthracite Headliner

Additional Options I would have liked:
Xenon Lights
White Turn Signals (anybody want to trade taillights?)
HiFi Sound System
JCW ( )

Hopeful Future Mods (if budget allows):
Black Mirror Caps
Black trims (grill/headlight/taillight)
H&R Springs
Rear Sway Bar (H&R or Alta)
18" wheels (not sure which ones yet but I really like the Rota MC's in Steel Grey or Black)
Any other suggestions will be appreciated.

Fun to drive

Dislikes:
Sunroof is noisy
Torque steer
Speakers
Halogen Headlamps suck (need something brighter)

Questions: If I debadge my car, do I need to put them back on when I return the lease?


Sorry for the crappy iphone pic. I'll take better pics of her after she's washed and detailed.

Thanks for looking!

I believe you will have to re-badge it.
Did you go over the MINI select deal with them? They offered us a tremendously low interest rate with MINI Select, to the point our payment is almost half of what it was before. (0.9%)
At any rate, welcome to the family, and be sure to wave!

PS
Kudos on midnight black... ours go faster!
