finally! i am a mini owner!!!!

the mini is unbelievable! i cannot believe that i finally made my dream come true! so much fun, so sporty, so me!!

as i pulled into my driveway, the mini received a welcome as if it was a rock star! my two sons and three other boys from the neighborhood ran to the car, and they swarmed all over it! they were in awe! they in the front seats, in the back, zombified by the speedometer's size and place!

one of the boys said that his father just pulled up in a brand new accord, but he didn't care because this was a mini!

my youngest son was showing everybody how the interior lights change colors. i had no idea they did that! he knew because his friend's mom has a mini! even a neighbor around the corner also just bought a cooper s racing green one! they're everywhere!!

i am so happy to be in the mini family, as well as the bmw family. i never own a bmw, never believed in a 1,000 years that i would own such a unique car, a car that definitely stands out from all others in its class! it's really a great, fun car!

a shout-out to my salesperson, christian frank over at princeton. if it wasn't for him hustling to get my sale by getting me into the car for my economical price, i would still be pouting about having to wait another year before i got into one. he really did a good job by being patient and honest.

Welcome and congrats! I know how you feel; I've only had my mini for 24 days (but who's counting!). My daughter did the same things with her friends. Trouble is she's 16 and keeps asking if she can drive it!
