Hello everyone!

I don't have any pictures of my new Cooper, but should be able to post in a couple of weeks when I take delivery. Mine has a black roof, Xenon lights with ALC, white turn signals, JCW cloth interior package, sport suspension, CW package, front & rear fogs & striped alloy interior trim.
I've already planned out most of my mods and ordered my parts, can't wait to dechrome most of it, add a couple of gauges and replace my fuel door with the MCs version.

Great choice! Names...hmmm...male/female? Nationality? Maybe wait till it arrives, it's "personality" will reveal itself to you, aiding your decision!

Good to hear of another Ice Blue / White hitting the streets!

Made landfall 3 days ago, just delivered to dealership this morning. I hope to be driving it by next Saturday.

I haven't thought of a name yet.

Haven't posted here in a while. What have you all done to your Ice Blue Mini's sense you bought them?

Mine just got some ink!







"GT" boot, dash and front lower grill emblems are on the way, as well as, chrome fog light surrounds that will be oranged-out like the side mirrors.

Mini now has a new model, the Cooper GT!

What a beauty! Saw one just like that; same color, top, mirrors and wheels, but no fog lights here in Anaheim, CA near Disneyland recently. Looked great zipp'n by the oposite direction. It rubber-necked me good.

Mine looks just like that too except I have the sport stripes and the top rails.

I love it.

Believe it or not there are 3-Clubmans in my small town and we all have the Ice Blue. And we are in a town that doesn't have hardly any Minis at ll. we are two hours from the nearest dealer.

I have had my ib hardtop for 9 months and I still love it and lots of sharp car love the color. It is not super common yet and hope it never is. Very important to keep your mini blue super clean and shiney so everyone will be jealous

Hi- getting ready to join the IB club! I've got a 2014 IB MCS Convertible on order, and if I read the charts right, it should be landing stateside in about a week. She's going to be the second baby in our MINI family. I love the color, and how it "changes" from almost baby blue to a sea-foam green. Can't wait to get her.

Cheers!
