Chile Red is the best color hands down.

Hey, Er.... how have you been? I thought you had already placed your order.

Do you not like White Silver?

Awesome. And no...I didn't like the white silver--too much silver, not enough white.

I won't be at the dealership long; just enough time to get it paid for, my stuff from CravenSpeed put on (coming to me on Thursday) (not interesting enough to tell you about...Platypus, antenna), and oh yeah, pay for the car...cause I'm going away for 2 weeks on Tuesday and will only be have about 60 hours of Coupe until the 23rd! The party over there starts at 11am, I don't know when I'll be there--might not know until the morning of, but will try and keep you posted!

Oh man... if they have a hippo, I'll definitely be there! Want to see if a hippo is bigger than a Countryman.

Well...the "zoo animals" consisted of some of the MAs in fur suits. I am not joking. There were animal crackers, and Goldfish to eat, too. And a bunch of balloons with tiger-stripes on them. ANYWAY. Not that any of that mattered being that I was there to pick up my car.... Meet Mischa!

Haha... worry I missed that ! Lucky for them it wasn't too hot out on Saturday. Did you get your $750 discount for the "Not Normal Sales Event" ?

As I posted in the other thead, looking good !

James:
is your point that there's a way to make the actual images show up? I figure people can click a link...doesn't waste trees or real estate in the forum. But thanks for doing that.

CR&etc:
Yup, I got the $750 taken off! Which made a total of $1607 below MSRP. I have no idea how I did that (been so long since I ordered?). I actually caught such a miniscule error on the invoice. SM had quoted wheel locks as $65 and they put them on the bill as $125. The finance guy was like, "um, that's wrong. He made a mistake. But I see this is what you agreed to so..." and deducted it. Hey, that's a few tanks of gas!

In other news, a bird had a big-a** party on my, um...bonnet at 24 hours after arrival.

I have had three classics, a mini one, a brg clubbie and now a coupe...so guess that makes me a serial mini/MINI owner too...

Me too! I've driven only MINIs for the last 10 years- Just traded in my '02 MCS for a '12 Coupe this summer.

My WIfe

My wife has a Reef Blue/Black Top S Coupe. Love this car. I hate to say it but, more fun to drive than my Countryman.
