Today I gave into temptation, and started browing the new MINI brochure. I absolutely fell in love with NFR. I have to admit, I never thought I would want a red car. But now I do.

I guess I need to call my dealership about a new car...

Here is the tag for the first person to post pics of thier new NFR Cooper. Of course, it is optional, and probaly should be combined with a background image.

Be happy to cook it up for whoever gets it first.

Wow, that looks great! The race is on for the non-west coast folks!

My ship is about 1/2 way to the Panama Canal. Slowly chugging away.

Not sure if you guys have perused mini2, but someone snapped a shot of a nightfire cooper at the dealer (down from the top). Looks great. It was definately our second choice.

So Skuzz, our friend who most needs this "NFR Support Group", have you really not been "assigned a production pack" or whatever yet? I think I need to work on a siggy pic for you, maybe a bottle with the label of Skuzzy's NFR Whine .

Oh yea, enough with the sympathy, I had forgot to mention...what kind of traitor are you? The car in the siggy pic you made up sure looks like Chili Red to me!!!

Nope, it is the pic from Rennie's post. Just too much blue in it. I will make a more permanent one when I get mine and can take some pictures.

I am still in the queue waiting for poduction to start. No date yet. sigh. I really thought I would have had that already.

Lol! Skuzzy's NFR Whine. I like that! A fine whine aged to perfection during the horrid time of waiting for his car!!!! The whine is a bit colorful. Almost pushy. A bit agressive. Definately a full body with a vigorous aroma. It could almost bite yer head off! Not to be taken lightly, this whine demands attention!

Can't have too many bottles of good champagne.
Can't have too many vacation days.
Can't have too many pics of the NFR Cooper.

Simply cannot have enough good things.

ROFL! Reminds me of the old Bill Cosby bit.

God: NOAH!
Noah: Who is that?
God: NOAH!
Noah: What?
God: NOAH! I want you to build an ark!
Noah: Who is this really?
God: It's GOD, NOAH!
Noah: ......Am I on Candid Camera?
God: NOAH!
Noah: WHAT DO YOU WANT!?!?!?

LOL!

Thank you rooandren!

I got no clue which one yet. The MA called me and told me she is on a boat, but her VIN is still showing as 'no information' in the shipping WEB page.
