Finally bought a new car

Been a lurker on here for the past couple of weeks and finally picked up an 08 cooper s yesterday while visiting my family in North Texas. It feels good to finally buy one after wanting one for the past 5 years!

Heres a pic of it, got lucky the person before me bought that 100000 mile maintenance package for it so it still has 70000 of free maintenance to go!

Put some new tires on it today, next step is putting black vinyl over all the chrome bits and a joey mod on the headlights!

Nice man gratz! I too just got my 08 a couple weeks back.

Funny thing, I was just talking to my buddy at work today about putting black vinyl over all the chrome on mine. I would do some satin finish vinyl myself.
