Great car! How did you manage to keep from driving long enough to take a picture.

I'm biased, but I really like the color combo and aero.
Looks SWEET! Just like mine when it was new. But now I've caught the *mod* bug, so it looks a little different.
Welcome to the CR/B club!!!!!

Very sharp! I particularly like the Aero Kit. I saw it a couple of weeks ago at the Washington, D.C. auto show on a Cooper (non-S) and loved it but to add it at this point is really steep. Looks great!

Like it alot....but must admit, I went with Cabrio, driving lamps, and R99's. Also, my aero kit included JCW exhaust tips. Were these offered to you? might want to ask about them. I would send a picture; just not computer savey 'nuf yet.

Thanks everyone!

The JCW tips were not offered to me, I wonder if that is only available for the convertible?

I cant stop looking at it/driving it. Went to a restaurant last night and changed my table to one close to a window, then went through a little bit of trouble to open the blinds so I could keep an eye on it

After taking delivery I can say that the money I spent on the Aero is more worth it (to me) than had I gotten leather or something of that nature.

Now to keep the paint chips away....

A couple more...

Here are some others I took...can't wait to 1. get a better camera (soon) and 2. for the sun to come out (who knows).

The last pic really makes the paint look orangy.

Oh yea - surprise about the Aero kit - it eliminates the "Cooper S" door sill plate. Now it is just red - gonna have to keep plenty of wax on it to keep it shiny.

Really like that first shot! Oh, and if you really want to I guess you could pull the "S" sills off the old side skirts and put then on the aero kit skirts. I just left mine all red. looks clean that way.

Do you already have a Whalen Shift **** on there? So fast!?
Cheers!

Yup, did some extensive research and didn't hear ONE bad comment about it, so I ordered it before I got the car. Drove 50 miles without it, not expecting the whalen to really make a difference, but once it was on, it did.
