Its Allliiiiivve!!!

OWG, can I have my wings? I love it, I love it, I love it! Love the color, love the stripes, love the anthracite, love the vroom!

Picked up my MINI this morning after hitting terrible traffic (probably the worst experience of sitting in traffic I've ever had due to the anticipation!!).

I got "lost" on my way to work and had to take a 80 mile drive, shucks! I'm definitely going to have to relearn how to drive, I was doing 90 without even blinking! I even had two MINI drivers and four non-MINI drivers wave or give me the thumbs up in just under an hour!

Edit: Trying to figure out this picture thing...attaching thumbnails:

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

OWG- do you know what that means next to the COURAGE ship? They're taking MINIS right? If that means they don't, then I have to wait for the Don Juan which sucks! ha ha ha...

Woo hoo, congrats starry!!!

MiniMama2- Did you order from Motor City Mini?


I did order from Motor City Mini and somehow ended up nearly in Florida!! Hope it doesn't take too long to bring up to Michigan. I think there was someone from Ohio on the SNH too!

Sorry, they aren't the illuminated sills, just the regular ones. I'll definitely have pictures up later tonight of the interior when it gets dark of all the other lighting.

And I'm the oldest at 58 years of age.


Nope I guess I might be the oldest at a very youthful 60!!

Congrats Zoned on being #1. The rest of us are sooooooo envious!

I'm thinking that you are Charleston bound. Did your MA give you a Vehicular Information Sheet, that had all the options? If so upper right - it identifies the port.
