Your build is pretty close to my build. I was told that JCW hardtop and convertible had their build slots delayed until November. I have heard this (November build) from two different dealerships but one other told me September. I wonder if the build delay is dealership or regional specific. Any thoughts? I was planning on ordering last Friday but held off due to the build date being so far off.
Did you get a chance to see what the new colors looks like? I think they are called Highclass Gray Metallic and Lightening Blue Metallic?

I like your build except for the red roof, although eclipse grey is the only color I think it looks decent on. I know I'm only one of a few that doesn't like it, but I really think it's something that's going to get old after a while and it's going to make the car harder to sell in the future. You can always vinyl it though I guess if you get sick of it.

No matter the color it's still going to be a sweet car!

BRG with a white roof and white wheels has to be one of the nicest color combos you can have on a car.

A couple of thoughts from a guy with a '11 JCW--Pepper White/with RED roof/mirrors. I love the red roof. Save money and some weight go w/o the sunroof. I don't like the looks of a sun roof on a MINI--and if you opt for a red roof I think it takes away from the look. Hey only my opinion. I opted for the JCW cloth seats--first cloth seats I can remember having in quite awhile. I like them a lot. I have the CR color line--so the seats add a lot to the look. Oh, forget rubber mats. I got some black with red dots--Cocomats. Pricey--but it sure looks sweet. My car is a MINI on steroids: I love it. Nick

PS I am getting the lower brake intakes on the front fender painted CR. Thought about the scoop but opted to just do the intakes. Did I mention I like Red?
