When in KC last week, we ordered our new car: a 2005 MINI Cooper S in British Racing Green Metallic with a white top and white bonnet stripes. The pic is of a similar car. Ours has yet to be manufactured yet, and it won’t be here until October. It’s going to be a LONG two to three months.
We went to Kansas City this weekend to order our MINI Cooper S from Baron MINI. Other than pouring rain most of Saturday followed by unseasonably cool temps (mid 50s in July!) and the lack of long pants or non-sandal shoes, we had a great time. As you can see from the pic I snapped of Hallie with my phonecam, we got to try out some Segways at their shop on Country Club Plaza. We also saw The Bourne Supremacy (very good action flick) and had some great food. I also got to lust over the art stereos at Bang & Olufsen. A good trip.
And the MINI will be here in October. Yeah. It takes a while to get one.
I’ve got a Gmail invite or two I don’t need. If you’re a friend, family member, distant relative, passing acquaintance, or have an Orkut invitation to offer in return, let me know, and I’ll probably hook you up.
UPDATE 2004.07.21: They’re back! I have more. Come and get ‘em.
