New Garage Furniture....*12/22/09 Update*

...but the historic snow in the Houston area has kept the camera in the house. I'll clean it up and get pictures this week......Phil

Update......After a long bout with the weather in the area, I was able to get a couple of quick shots over the weekend. The CEO is loving her new whip. This will be my week to keep it as my daily...can't wait. The color is the same as the old one, but that's about it. The exhaust note sounds better on the turbo as compared to the supercharger. There is definitely more interior room than before. Also the OBC works more like a BMW than before. To my surprise it even comes with the 3 blink option for the turn signals. Here are a few other details:

2010 Cooper S
Pepper White on Leather Punch Carbon Black and Brushed Alum interior
Auto w/ Paddle Shifters
Bluetooth and iPod intergration
Sport Package...note the new sport button
Premium Package
H/K sound system is a must have
Ralley lights are a nice touch

Looks like a Mini Cooper S.We see a few here(not many Cooper S) and they usually just have the roof in white ,as in the traditional Cooper colours but here it looks great in the FULL white colour.

Yeah, the lease was up on the "06" Cooper S so the CEO decided she wanted another one. It was a long 6 week wait but all is well now . I can't wait to see how much better the turbo response is compared to the supercharger. It even has a sport button now .....I'll give the full lowdown once I get pictures.

Pepper White is a very nice color. After 3 year of ownership, it's been rare to see all white. The white Cooper's are generally shipped with a black top.....Phil

Speaking of that, I made a Great contact while picking up the Mini. The GM of the dealership came down to finalize the deal on the Mini. So we are talking and I find out that he's driving a X5///M. Long story short, he gave me his card and basically said invoice price when I'm ready to get a X6///M He says he believes in customer loyalty. This is our 3rd car in 3 years so he made it a point to ensure we return .....Phil

Yeah I have a year but I'm hoping to do a 3 month pull ahead. They offered on the Mini but we waited it out....Phil

Very nice! Good chance to test its winter handling, too! (Or do a lot of donuts, one or the other)

Not going to happen...the snow you see is a major miracle. It doesn't snow in Houston. That white stuff was gone in a matter of hours. But I will test the new and improved sport button they've added to the Cooper S ...Phil
