The only thing that will keep it from being popular is Mini not allowing many of the popular interior choices available. No cloth seats allowed with NF Red. Which is really silly. And limited colorlines as well.
It's like Mini is trying to force this color to be something classier than the other color choices. As far as I am concerned, snobbery has no place in what someone should be allowed to order with their car.

It is a classy color, but I feel my configuration is geared towards young and fun. Cloth, sport seats, 10 speaker sound, iPod/bluetooth, rotator spoke tires...
I'm sorry you had such an odd experience.

Welcome Katie...ok this is what I need for the NFR Database.
1) your state (or province)
2) MINI's name
3) type of transmission
4) packages
5) options, including trim color, etc.
You are now a vested member because you've posted a pic. If you can find Skuzzy, he can get you a badge of honor...someone else has it too....help out NFRer's...who's got the button?

Sounds like a sweet mini! Congrats!! 
I tested drove an NFR with cloth seats. I liked them. I guess dealers can override some of the choice restrictions... maybe I should have asked about that.
The only thing my Mini doesn't have that I would have liked is cloth seats but am planning on seats covers which I think will help with the them getting too hot this summer. Would love some Recaros but damn they are pricey!

So this is the place us NFR owners get together
Looks like I have a lot of reading to do 137 pages!
Joined NAM last month and have had my NFR/B Mini since 3/31 the options list is cold and premium with sports seats and 15" wheels.
I was shopping and this one just called out from the lot and followed me home; have 4,300 miles so far and still grinning.
