Finally got my stripes installed this morning. I think it looks 100x better with the stripes breaking up the width of the bonnet.

 

Those stripes look great!! I test drove an Interchange Yellow today and my fiance and I are hooked. He keeps building one in the configurator. LOL We'll probably be getting one but it will have to be next year

 

Hey Jeremy,

So, I finally installed the CF Rear Boot Handle and the CF Mirror Caps. I don't know if you want to keep the IY boot handle and mirror caps, or if you wanted to upgraded to Chrome. If you did, let me know.

 

I'm actually waiting to go CF on the boot handle, and going to get my mirror caps painted black . But thanks for thinking about me.

 

think I saw one of these today at the dealership. fell in love with the interior/exterior combo.
looked almost green. cloth seats with yellow threading. could'a shown it said chromium yellow, but don't think there is such a color. 2009 mini s convertible, was a "PTT" or "PTS" so they were shipping it back or to another dealership. said only 250 of them made, sounded kinda suspicious or just salesman talk, but the color is beautiful nonetheless.

 

I would love to join the Interchange Yellow Mini Club...I will post pictures soon. I had an 03 Mini Cooper S coupe and wanted a convertible, but waited until yellow was available! I love my car!

 

Hi jeremy1026, my wife and i are proud new parents of a 09' R57 interchange yellow mini S. We love the interchange yellow owners club badge!! Who do we contact about joining the club?

 

That would be me. Welcome welcome! Do post some photos ASAP

Not sure if these pics made it?!

 

Rock on for using a Mac Scott. But you first must upload the files to the internet. To do this you can either upload to NAM or to a 3rd party website like Flickr or Photobucket. To upload directly to NAM when you post a new reply click Manage Attachments (its under the text entry box.) From there choose the photos and click Upload. Now your images will be attached to your post. If you go the third party route just read through their website for how to upload and get the image URL.

 

Hi Jeremy1026,
It took awhile with sizing of the photos... i'm not computer savy
This is our baby!! https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...1&d=1252015342

 

It looks GREAT! I really like those wheels, but couldn't justify an extra $750 since I already liked the R111's

 

The R111's are cool, we dig the 5 spoke look on any ride!! We saw the R98's in black and flipped... had to have em'!! Picked up the mini from the dealer today, had CF exterior Mirror caps and a dimming rear view mirror w/ UGDO installed. Problem with the garage door opener, the LED light won't come on to program it. probably operator error!!! Mirrors are real tight looking though... love it!!!

 

Woohoo ladies and gents! The 2010 MINIUSA configurator is up, and our beloved Interchange Yellow is still a convertible only color! There were a lot of rumors all summer after the discontinuation of Mellow Yellow that Interchange Yellow would be taking over the entire MINI line. But happily, its still just for us that enjoy to be open, take the shining sun with the rain. Us, the Open Motorers.

 

Just saw my first Interchange Yellow Cabrio out in the wild tonight. It was a wonderful site to see it sitting peacefully in the parking lot of a restaurant as I zipped on by.

 

we haven't seen a I.Y. cabrio in our travels yet, but plenty of others. motor on!!

 

I have another 09 I.Y. Cabrio JCW edition I bought back in June. Waited for 2 months (since April) to get it from Oxford. Will post pictures soon

 

Awesome. Congrads and welcome. It's great to see another fellow SF Bay Area Interchange Yellow owner...

I'm on the East Bay, where about you from?

 

Welcome to the land of Interchange Yellow rulezz22. I believe Coldplay said it best, "it was all yellow.'

 

Thank you Zanary. I live in Fremont. Have been reading your posts, but never replied. Wanted to say I have looked at your MINI when it still was on the lot (East Bay MINI - they've only had one), i.e. before you bought it and really liked it. Played a big role in my purchasing decision. Ordered my JCW a few days later after looking at yours and a few others from Mountain View
Negotiated a deal in Sacramento. Went all the way there...
Have to say you've modified yours quite a bit. Very nice car!

 

Thank you. I'm still trying to figure out where to put some photos of my car, so it'd be easy to link them to this thread. Few more minutes...

 

Here's my baby! 2009 MINI Cooper JCW Interchange Yellow.

 

I have ordered my car with pretty much every option but the navi. Seats are gray leather/cloth with yellow stitching. Sport suspension, cold weather, convenience, hi-fi, MFSW, xenon lights, iPOD, etc., etc. The only thing I did so far on my own is to install Invisiline bonnet and bumper shield to keep bugs out. Oh, yeah, I have bought floor mats for it too! Have plans for more

I was thinking about getting chrome boot handle and mirror caps... are yours for sale?

 

Looking sharp rulezz22. I like that your hat matches your MINI

 

LOL. Thanks! The hat is not exactly "interchange yellow", however.
I see you've got your car with the new Aero bumper kit - pretty cool!
