My first Mini to be....

Hi everyone, I just put a deposit today at Momentum Mini here in Houston. I ordered a 08 MCS in mellow yellow, sport, conv, prem., and cold package. I was going to custom order one from scratch but got too needy when the salesman told me one was at port, so I decided to take it since it almost has everything I want. Mini Coopers always put a smile on my face when I saw one on the road so I finally got myself to buy one. I'll post pics soon along with my other cars.

Happy Motoring!

Welcome to NAM and Congrats on the Mini order.

So are you coming from a Dodge Viper, or do you like snakes?

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, ya'll seem to be a great bunch of individuals. I'm a big car nut, I had a viper way back then. I live in the montrose area, its a great car for a urban commuter. I'll post pics soon after I get mine. Im already thinking of wheels for it, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Best Regards,
Scott
