A little late intro from an R60 in Denver, CO

I've been active for a few months here in the "lurker" phase when deciding on my new vehicle and then choosing the new one. I finally found a new ride - 2012 R60 S All4 Countryman. It's Cosmic Blue with Anthracite rims, 6 speed, and way more torque than 180-something HP should feel like!

I drove a TON of manual AWD vehicles prior to driving the mini. A bunch of which were probably more mechanically sound (ish) but they just weren't ... unique. The one that I came close to buying before this was the Subaru WRX STi but it wasn't right for me.

Onto naming - I think we've deicded to name it Trogdor but not decidedly so yet. However, I did create quite a fun sub-subreddit asking for names.

Welcome, officially, to NAM! I'm from Boulder and still have a residence in Denver about 10 minutes outside downtown. Colorado is great, I miss it a lot. Very nice looking CM. I like the all black look. Good luck with your name search!

Welcome , you can attach the pics here. Post up some more pics, the triple black Countryman looks good. I would light tint the windows to complete the look.
