I wanted HC with white roof but not do-able. So, what royalties do I owe you. I got the HC/HC with black pillars, prem pckg, conv pckg, 6 spd. And I really want to get a badge like your picture for the front grill. Ya think we can get some custom made? Anybody?

ROFLMAO! LadyG, thanks for the warm welcome but as far as your siggy... I'm still trying to figure out what it all means (and your's ain't the only one, ).

I may just go for the "MCCS HC/S with a bunch of other initials thrown in"
(or my brain might explode!)

Honestly, I had a really hard time choosing between the silver & the black pillars. Both are beautiful and I just LOVE that Hot Chocolate. I ended up with the Silver because it just looked like I could drink it right up, like hot cocoa with whipped cream, or a mochaccino... yummmmmmmmyslurp! I may end up naming my baby Mochaccino... seems to just roll right off my tongue (sorry folks, I've been home for a few weeks recovering from a minor surgery & I am having withdrawals!).

Actually, I've seen your posts all over the place, and after I learn the ropes, I think we have some roads to talk about... My mom is up in SOPO and I have family all over the Mid Coast. Reading your posts gives me all sorts of driving ideas, tee hee hee!

Altho I'm not native, I consider myself in exile-

Not sure if you are aware of this but Littlebean will not be getting off in Baltimore. All the Baltimore/DC MINIs go through the NY/NJ port and are then trucked down. You are probably looking at delivery 10-14 days after the Aniara offloads in NJ.

Has anybody ordered an HC JCW Clubman or know anyone who has ordered this combo?? Just curious as it seems most people who want the ultimate MINI are opting for AB, CR, DS, or PW.

It is too bad because HC is a beautiful!! My JCW Clubby will be either AB or HC.........waiting for an allocation from the dealer.
