Cool. This is my favorite color combination and the one I would have ordered if I bought brand new. Happy motoring!

Hi Sandie, nice to see you got your JCW! It looks nice!

I'm still waiting for mine (currently in transit from NY to LA... maybe it'll be in by end of next week if I'm lucky). Any problems picking your's up? I'm in a similar situation with my order from MINI of the Hamptons...

Also, did you get your car smogged before registering it in CA? I thought we had to do that (when ordering out-of-state), but I got a certificate that says mine is 50-state certified etc.

Blammo yes there was a small problem picking it up, the charged me 963.00 dollars. I kept telling them I had already paid MINI of the Hamptons but didn't bring the paper work to prove it, worked out okay though, they called the next morning appologizing up on side and down the other, also refunded the money. I went to DMV and they need the certificate that comes with the car saying it meets CA standards, But you still have to smog (very stupid in my opinion) but that's CA DMV. When I picked mine up they also had a Grey/white one on the truck from the Hamptons, it was also dropped in Hayward, anyone know whos it is?

Thanks for the info, Sandie. I'll make sure to bring the paperwork when I pick mine up...

Have fun and enjoy your new toy!
