That's great to hear! I will switch the 19" JCW wheels to the 17"s with all seasons for the winter because I'm sure those 19s are not going to be good at all.

Thanks for the info!

Kyle

 

Quick update

The car has been made! and it is the "Awaiting Transport" Stage....

How long do you guys think it will take to be at the dealer?

 

I have to agree it does look best with the aero kit... and In a perfect world i would LOVE to have both

But the car is $38,000 USD from the factory and its way into the 40's with some accessories... Eventually the car will have both the wheels and the aero.

 

Thanks for the Link Nathan! Very helpful

Kyle

 

Thanks We are going to LOVE it!

 

Hey guys!

I HAVE SOME GREAT NEWS!

Just checked the Order Tracking through the owners lounge... and it says my Countryman "EN ROUTE". This is GREAT because it should be on a ship called Manon, Owned by W&W... which comes into port on the 5th of October! (Today is September 23)

The next ship leaves the 28th and gets in on the 12th which was the ship I expected to be on because Manon left 3 days ago and the OL didn't update until now.

Anyways just thought I'd share my exciting news with you!

Kyle

 

Last I heard was it was in VDC. That was 3 days ago and it has priority 1 status, because it's already purchased.

Hopefully we will have it very soon!

P.S. just a side note to the accessories, we went for the R129's and the aero kit! This thing is going to be sick!
