New mini owner!

So I am a first time mini owner and I am so hooked! This is absolutely the best car I have owned. Previous cars were, 92 eagle talon(first car), 00 Subaru Impreza 2.5rs, 91 Dodge Colt with a 4G63T swap, 91 Dodge Stealth R/T, And a 96 Vw Gti. I traded the stealth in on this car. Its an 04 Mini Cooper S. It has 56k on it, its dark silver with black and silver stripes. It already has an Invidia Catback and a JCW intake, but I traded intakes with my buddy for his alta v2 intake. Future mods include, 15% or 17% pulley, Detroit Tuned bpv, Blackout, wheels and coilovers and meth inj. Here are some pics a buddy and I took. Let me know what you think.
