We took delivery this morning - first F60 delivered from our dealership on this official launch day.

Thrilled with the car so far. Drives really well and clutch is very smooth.

There are SO many new features to learn about this car. I had no idea it had internal HD storage for music files. Voice recognition actually works for inputting addresses and the touchpad is great for searching for music on iPod.

 

looks great, enjoy it!

 

Congrats! Enjoy! :D

Yeah, I saw the thing in the menus about storage for music, but didn't get too much into it (for obvious reasons)... The heads-up display will also show stuff on it when you're changing stations via the steering controls... I am not a huge fan of the HUD, but thought that was kind of cool...

 

My wife took delivery of her new Light White S All4 at 9AM in Toronto. The dealer said it was the first Countryman released in Canada. Probably BS but it made us feel nice!

She is loving the car so far. Mind you after driving a mini van for the past 8 years a lawn tractor would be a step up. She picked up a "pre release" model with Loaded Package, Essentials Package and LED Package.

Is is it just me or do people (other drivers and pedestrians) seem friendlier when you are driving a mini?

 

Congrats! Drive it in good health.

 

 

Congratulations! Rare that you see a night photo. Love the way it projects the Mini logo on the pavement.

 

Beautiful car inside and out, congrats!

 

If anyone gets one with "Piano Black Illuminated Interior Surface" I'd appreciate some photos. Thanks

 

 

I'm glad no two are alike (so far...)

 

Congrats! She is going to love it!

​​​​​​The F60 continues to impress me with each drive. Great car!

 

Those rally wheels are my new favorite MINI wheel

 

dang those wheels are nice, I want some!

 

Midnight Blue did you happen to see where your manual gearbox was made . I've noticed the automatics say Japan . Thanks

 

I knew the automatic transmission was built by Aisin. No idea about the manual though.

 

Ok but the window stick should say where it was built

 

Just checked and indeed the manual transmission is also made in Japan.

 

That's good then thank you

 

Getrag manuals, I think. They're "okay" but not great.

 

Thought Getrag transmissions were made in Germany?

 

My wife's F60 is in production, estimated complete is 3/23. I have a quick question for those that took delivery. Is the keyfob the same as the F56, the round one with the buttons in a straight line? I want to buy her a cover before the car arrives, but want to get the right one!

Thanks!

 

Yes!

 

...and that is unfortunate!!! It's a terrible fob.

 

Thanks for the replies!

On another thread, I saw discussion about a 3D printed piece from Shapeways. Took the whole circle thing away. I bought one for my F56. I like it alot! I didn't get the polished one, and wish i would have, but, it fits so much better in my pocket!
