I'm so glad to see another person with almost the identical car I got, minus the checkered roof. All my family was making fun of me saying I was going through a mid-life crisis, but when I saw the options for black lights, wheels and spice orange I couldn't resist ordering.
Glad to see A) A forum for Mini's and B) a specific thread for the SOs
I'm enjoying every mile of my mid-life crisis! Don't let that kind of teasing get to you. I embrace it. It just means I've paid my dues driving giant sluggish family friendly cars, and spent a bunch of time going to school, working and building a career.

+1. I am so enjoying this car. Really doesn't matter what others say or think about it, once your back in the car is just a blast and you'll forget all about ( and not care ) what others might have said.
Just picked up my Spice Orange MCSa yesterday (3/19/2011). Makes MINI #4 for my wife and I. We started with a 2005 MCSa EB/W for her, a 2006 MCS HB/S for me, 2010 MCCSa Hzb/B for her (traded the '06), and now traded the '05. Spring fever and MINI incentive programs have been to hard for us to resist this past two months of March.
We picked up our Spice Orange 2011 JCW and love it. Our 05 MCS will be getting the orange and black treatment soon. Are there any JCW Spice Orange badges out there?
Just picked up my 2011 Spice Orange Justa. She's my second MINI. The first was an '08 Chili Red MCS...I loved that car, but financially could not buy it after my lease was up. Luckily I got a lease on the 2011. Sad to not have the turbo anymore, but at least I'm still driving MINI. As far as the color goes, if you're going to drive one, GO BIG! The clear coat is really nice, too. Black roof, bonnet stripes and checkered mirror caps.
Picked up my SO last week taking advantage of the reduced APR and package price. Very happy with it so far. Has wayyyyyy more torque than my 08 Subaru Legacy GT and way less body roll. Looking forward to seeing what people say around NH with the color. Haven't seen one rolling around with SO yet.

I guess I can officially declare, now that my new 2011 is "in the paint shop" over in Oxford, England. It should be Spice Orange now! 'fraid it will be early June before I get it at this rate (it has been "Scheduled for Production" for an inordinately long time - just hoping it doesn't wait a long time to get on a ship and make it to Baltimore).
