Got MINI, several pictures :)

it's almost been a week since I got my mini

took it out and took a few snaps i'll post more later



it's 2006 MCSa with 10500 miles on it.
premium, sport, leather
I got it for $22000 including tax





View was fantastic here in So-cal after rain. you can even see downtown!



the flare ruined the pic a bit :(







this was about a year ago when I spotted a test-mule m3

last week I also saw this m3 in 4-door version near Santa Monica. very cool cars

Nice Images!

You should think about entering the Monthly Contests here in NAM.

And...IMHO flares aren't a bad thing when used in the right way.

Congrats! Good looking car. I take it you live in the South Bay area, right? I drive along that street every weekend in the first picture every weekend. I'm in the West Torrance area.

Congrats, again.
