Welcome to NAM from Middle Georgia Minis. Congrats on your new ride and hope you have many trouble free miles and many new adventures along the way. Where are you located? I'm an ex Hoosier[Indy] living in Georgia. Got tired of the snow and cold. If your not too far from Indy they have a great MINI group there. Search Club and Regional Forums.

I'm in Fishers as well. I'll see you at the gathering tonight then.

Hopefully the snow holds off as much as possible. At least we don't have to go that far if it doesn't.

Congrats! Northern Indiana member here. Welcome to insanity, and please, try to waive to fellow MINI'ers as much as possible. Nothing erks me more than me trying to waive to someone in another MINI and they just stare at me...

Like Kyle mentioned, check into becoming a member of MINICCI. We do a lot of fun things. Sadly I can only partake in a few of them due to my location...

Last but not least, post pics!

Hello from a native Hoosier now in San Diego. Grew up in northwest Indiana (aka Chicagoland) then went to Ball State and finally settled in Indianapolis after school. But yeah, the weather just got to be too much so now I'm here in Southern California wearing shorts and a tee in the middle of January.

Anyhow, welcome to the MINI family. I've got 2 and love them both. Enjoy driving them on those twisty, hilly Indiana roads!
