No dealer in little rock
Is there not a dealer in Little rock?
My pick-up point is Roadshow Mini in Memphis. So Minerva will have a bit of a truck ride before she gets there. Then I have to get there somehow. Hubby is going to check with some of his students (college) to see if one of them would haul us up there for a tankfull of gas and a crisp $100 bill or so + a nice meal while there possibly.

YAY!! Hubby just had the most brilliant idea!!!! We can (now DUH, why did we not think of this sooner???) RENT A CAR, pick it up here and drop it off there. Now granted, we have to pay the penalty for dropoff somewhere other than where we got it, but that won't likely be as much as plane tickets! Not to mention we don't have to hassel with airport security, and we can ride home together in our new MINI.

I saw a PW and a CR/B yesterday in Hot Springs (I went and bought a Christmas tree and some wrapping paper). I am soooo looking forward to having my MINI! I wouldn't have been able to get that tree in there though... I took my mom's SUV for that. Golly, it's a big tree. I hope it isn't too big....... At the least, it is going to be verrrrrrrry interesting playing with the furniture.

red or black
Did you get the red or the black lounge leather? I can't wait to see the car myself. There was a silver one with LSD and JCW saw at the dealer (I go once a week) and they asked if I wanted it instead....UHM NO!!!
Well, with the redwood leather your car is pretty special. That is one interior option that has REALLY grown on me over time, mostly because the configurator does NOT do it justice. At first I was thinking I didn't like it at all, but I never had thought about the BRG with it. Now that I have seen a couple of photos of the combination, it is going to be a SWEET car. I am looking forward to seeing photos of YOUR BRG with Redwood! I like th white turns with the BRG too.

Mine is black, to go with the grey/black/chrome/brushed alloy/red interior. (ooo, this sounds like a frenetic color scheme all of the sudden...) I prefer the redwood with the BRG, PW and AB MINIs. Most people with the black lounge leather have the piano black dash option, but I switched mine to brushed alloy. I really liked how it is REAL metal and also that it does not show fingerprints like the piano black.

red?
What is red in the interior?

Fellow week 45'ers...
...Looking for an update on whether the USB connection made it in for the bluetooth-enabled vehicles. I'm 80% certain that it won't make it on US-bound vehicles, but I'm 20% hopeful. Folks in the East will have their Wk45 cars a few weeks ahead of me, so wack me upside the head with a clue-by-four.
Thanks,
~Neal

Now my wife has sworn it off, and says, okay, I will expect it on Friday. She's tired of getting excited it will be here, but then it doesn't arrive. So, hopefully sometime this week.
No call as of 2:30pm on Monday. :-( I'm starting to get anxious! And I want to hear back from Alex@TireRack, as now we will need the snow immediately, the longer it takes to get here. The white stuffs coming, and the MINI is not...
