Just ordered mine!

I've been lurking on NAM, trying to decide on the color for my new Mini. This thread won me over to EG. Thanks, everyone! The next 8-10 weeks are going to be very sloooooooow.

Recieving a black JCW grill trim, black-out side scuttles, door handles and gas cap this week. Also blacking out the side indicator lights. Should be a fun week!

Either way, great looking Hardtop you got there.

Thank you. Both dealers were excellent. I was a bit price-sensitive, and even more so picky about what options I had to have, as I had several rare must-haves but didn't want to pay for dumb options like alarm and PDC. If I ordered my Mini it probably would have been from Annapolis, since they were more willing to deal, but as it turns out Passport had a 5500-mile MINI executive car that was never titled and qualified for the new-car March incentives. Eclipse grey was a third color choice but the options list is great (I wish it had Punch leather and a rear fog but...) and I saved a ton of cash.

So that's it. Passport has a great reputation here. Sterling laughed at the idea of taking money off the MSRP...I guess that's why they aren't selling many cars now.

First off, my first post. Hello all. My clubman is somewhere on a truck, en route to dealership. It's been a looong wait.

Bigmer11mcs, could you point me in the right direction regarding the black out exterior accessories you purchased? Simple link or PM, will do, don't want to mess the thread.

I've thinking maybe Jeeves for the name, or Belvedere. It's got to be Brit



Look forward to learning from everyone about mods!

Cheers,

Navlancer (sig and full specs to be built)
