Miami Newbie here...

[FONT=Verdana]Hello everybody. As a new member, I’m taking these few minutes to introduce myself:

For starters, let me thank all of you. Thanks to all the posting I have read here, my transition from Acura/Honda to MINI was made simpler and seemingly worry-free. After 15 years with Acura/Honda, it felt like skydiving for the first time. {Actually, sky diving was easier. I just stepped out and let gravity most of the work. ;o)} [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana]Any way, I had been in the market for a new car for close to a year. Looking at the Acura TL, TSX; the Honda Accord Coupe and Honda S2000 but that’s no longer the case.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana]After 6 months of constantly looking and building MCS’ online, On Sunday, I took delivery of a “WELL HIDDEN; UN-INVENTORIZED” New Chili Red 2008 MCS with White roof. Premium and Sport packages with 17" Crown-spoke wheels and White Bonnet Stripes; Limited Slip Differential; Xenon headlights; White turn signals; Rooster Red Interior (which I LOVE) with Anthracite Headliner and Sport wheel w/ Multifunction.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana]Over the weekend, I’ll be looking to add the Rear fog lamps, center arm rest and a much needed bicycle rack.

As for me: I'm probably the youngest 36 year old. I enjoy comics, cartoons and sci-fi movies/shows and I’m a die hard fan of BATMAN. It seems that I only act my age from Monday through Friday from 08:00 to 17:00. I’m an Accountant by trait but looking to become an Officer of the Law. Currently in a LOOOOOONG Hiring process that has taken 9 months so far. Currently I have no children (working on it with wifey) but I do have 3 wonderful nieces who love to take advantage of their uncle. I enjoy riding mountain bikes on weekends, working out, playing sports, getting into all sorts of trouble, and spending time with our families.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana]Nevertheless, I may have posted more than everyone here is looking to know. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana]Either way… It’s GREAT to be part of the Motoring Family. [/FONT]

Congrats on the MINI and Welcome to NAM....and the MINI world.

Ever heard of Comic Con? Biggest Comic Book Convention in the U.S. - comes here to the San Diego Convention Center (where I work) every year. So believe me, there are LOTS and LOTS of people of all ages that enjoy that type of entertainment... http://www.comic-con.org/ It gets a little crazy here - over 40,000 people a day for 4 days...
