There are a few updates on MINIUSA.com that may be of some interest. First, as reported on MotoringFile previously, it would appear that an end to the Anthracite headliner drama in the US is officially here and it's return to the US is immanent. The headliner has been added into the MINI ordering system and is available on MINIUSA.com. It is ZAH and is available from week 46 (early November) production onward. As reported here last week the price will be $200.

Secondly they have removed the polished and Anthracite versions of the new R99 wheels. No word as to why but lets hope that the roll-out is just pushed back a few months.

Finally, there are now pictures accompanying the White Sunroof Graphic and Checkered Sunroof Graphic options. Could this be the white/frosted sunroof that was mentioned in several articles earlier this summer?
