got most of the options, except the navigation. I love the "comfort bluetooth", and overall they made this car so much better than previous years without raising the price much if at all.


It's such a great car, I would get one in the brown with the brown leather interior, but I think I am going to get the new Cube. They really upped their game from 04, it's an almost all new chassis and drives like butter.

I work by Port Authority and was surprised the other day when I walked by the Times building and realized there was a Muji store in there on on the bottom floor on 40th (I think). I stopped in quickly, didn't buy anything bc I was in a hurry, but it looked like they had a pretty good stock. Shirts look nice.

the brown is great, I never would have thought I'd like a brown colored car but that bronze tone is amazing. The burgundy looks more like it came from my closet so I had to go with that. But I did see a brown Clubman with the pinstripe leather seats that was SICK.

btw, our Mini dealer told us that BMW is resurrecting the Triumph TR-7 to sell alongside Mini...it'll be a 2 seat roadster and keep the same overall lines and style of the classic Tr-7(!!!)

Is the Cube already for sale? Never seen one on the road

That brown on brown Clubman is sick.

Cube comes out in the next few months, pricing came out today, I get to drive it next month, am stoked. They make one in brown, called Bitter Chocolate Brown - I hope it looks like the MBZ's from the 70s brown. Brown cars = awesome.

I'm work pretty deep within the auto biz and haven't heard that rumor about BMW resurrecting the Triumph TR7. I think the MINI dealer was wishing.

My 2nd car was a 1981 Saab 900 in dark brown. I've been longing for the return of the brown car.

Supposedly the TR-7 is slated to start production in 2011 or 12 (?), but who knows.

the brown Clubman, sick as hell and would have been my 2nd choice after the Nightfire Red

Normally I'm not one to extoll the virtues of American Eagle products, but I have nothing but praise for this great trench coat I picked up today. I walked into the store out of curiosity, intrigued by some ads I had seen for the coat, and I really wasn't expecting much. But for $59.95, this rivals the J. Crew Sutherland, and I even like it better than the "vintage" Burberry I picked up on eBay for around the same price recently. Simple, single-breasted, slim-fitting, and unlike everything else they make, there is NO ugly eagle logo to be found anywhere on the coat except for the inside lable and even there it's rather smallish.

Great coat for the price. Great alternative to J. Crew.

Oh, yeah, and machine washable.
