Hey all, I know my name isn't very creative but hey, it works. I'm 18 and looking around at some MCS' out and about. Hopefully going to get a Baby Blue MCS, since I will be attending the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill next year. Looking for a R53 with low miles, and found an '04 with 30k miles for 14k. Wondering if I should pull the trigger. Thanks in advance, and I am already enjoying the great forum.

 

Just Do It!
But its gotta be a 6 speed tranny.
There is a local club as well, try a track day with them they do alot of em. I thinnk its Tar Heel MINI club or something like that.

 

I know, that was a requirement, a 6 speed. My dad tought me how to drive stick when I was just learning how to drive. He's pretty big into cars and is currently selling his E36 M3 Convertible. I've always liked the Mini's and loved the somewhat strong power of the MCS. Along with the great handling. I used to drive a 1996 BMW 328i, five speed of course. I'll also look into the club, see if I can learn some new info. Thanks!
