Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I live north of boston and i'm going to be ordering a new LiB MCS very soon. I've been a fan of minis since i was a little kid because my parents came from Portugal and my Dad raced minis while he was there. I currently own a 2004 dodge srt-4 that i'll be trading in to get the mini. I was originaly going to get a mini when i bought the dodge, but i've never been a fan of superchargers. So as soon as i found out that the new minis were turbo charged i started pitching the idea to the wife

.
Well, just wanted to say hi and i'll update once i get details from the dealer. Oh...and i'm ordering it from Mini of Peabody in case anyone was wondering.
