New to NAM

Hello, just wanted to throw up my first posting. In January my wife and I finally took the plunge and got ourselves into our first MINI. A 2005 chili red MCS! A total blast everytime I get in it. I've always been more of a black car fan, but after driving a red MINI, something spoke to me... something like "BUY ME!" Anyways, it's good to finally join NAM and we hope to make MITM in Copper Mountain this August.

Danandtan,

Aloha and welcome to NAM.

Chili Red is a classic as is your 2005 MCS.

While black is very good, you'll enjoy the red look.

Take some pictures and post them and seek out a local MINI club in your area to go for rides. Check out the various community forums on NAM.

Motor On.

Hi danandtan. Welcome to NAM. I have an 06 Astro Black MINI. She is a beauty but tough to keep clean. I've also had some fun with a 05 CR Cabrio loaner for two weeks last summer. It sure was a head turner!

Welcome to NAM! This is a really fun place to be when you can't be motoring! Congrats on the Chili Red MINI, that was my second choice. If my Sgt Pepper ever needs replacing, that's where I'll probably go. Enjoy the ride!!!

Congrats on the Chili peppa, and welcome to the MINI burbs. Enjoy the ride, and remember, it's not what you eat, it's how you drive!
