Took delivery of my F55...VERY HAPPY!!!

History of my first MINI journey:
Originally wanted an F55S, my 5'1 wife didn't fit in the sport seats at all.
Built/ordered a deep blue metallic F55, arrived damaged.
Dealer found me this one in port, give or take an option, and gave me $1500 off. No regrets!!!


Will be adding JCW Pro mirror caps...and trying to decide on stripes (all ideas welcome).


F55
white silver
black roof/mirrors
cold weather package
premium package
steptronic auto
runflat all seasons
16" victory spoke black
roof rails
armrest
anthracite headliner
piano black interior

Congrats! I'm waiting for my F55S to get to me. He should hit the Panama Canal in the next couple of days. Can't wait to pick him up!

Americo11 (fellow RIander)...like orange, but I don't want to go the prime/paint route, or wait for someone with orange selling theirs. I'm picking up the JCW Pro tomorrow, and leaning towards some sort of chili red/black stripes.

Duh ..didn't even notice you're screen name ..lol Hey congratz man that sounds like a great color combo too! Did u purchase from Warwick? I had a lot of stuff done through them they are a pretty good Dealership. In any case enjoy and I'm sure I'll see you around. I drive a pepper white 10 S vert (which there are a lot of in this state) I'll be in the one waving.

Yes, MINI Warwick. They are great. Even matched the lowest internet price I found for the JCW mirror caps. I'll be sure to wave back...JPRI
