New MCS and my first post

Hello I have been on this site for a month or so and decieded it was time to go to the 1st gear section and introduce myself. My name is Dirk and I live in Portland OR. and just purchased my 2007 M.C.S. a month ago and could not be happier!! I did not order mine it was a car that had been canceled by the person who ordered it and I snatched it up. Yes like a vulture, If anyone is considering ordering a Mini S I can not stress enough the need for the limited slip diff!! If you like to drive even slightly aggressive you will be sorry you do not have it, I myself do not but it is on my list of to-dos as money allows. The only thing I have done to the car so far is install a Clear bra with the help of my wife " A two person job" and change the fog lights to Yellow ion bulbs. And remove the hood scoop and install a stainless steel screen for air flow and cooling. I am designing my own cold air kit and will be adding lowering springs shortly "They are a bit goofy looking from the rear all hiked up from the factory" Hope to talk to some of you soon. Dirk

Here are the specs of the car
* M.C.S. in Chili red with white top
* Premium package
* Sport package
* Cold weather package
