I Got Her!!

Hi all,
I just picked up my 2011 Cooper hardtop on March 17th. I am completely obsessed with her. I got her in all Midnight black with black bonnet stripes. She is everything I wanted in my MINI. I actually hate driving but that is totally different now. I want to drive! It's strange how when you finally find the right car for you it just changes everything. I AM IN LOVE!

Congrats,

Not to be picky, but you have a 2011 Cooper. The Justa is not needed...

I know the feeling. My MA was able to receive her I think about 2 weeks after she reached U.S. shores. Hang in there.

Congrats! I've actually never seen a black MINI with the black stripes before, BUT I LIKE THE WAY THAT LOOKS! Breaks up the visual a little bit, definitely nice looking!

Very nice!! Some people say Justa, some don't, whatever works for you! That's a hot looking Cooper, I like the black on black. I say black out the grille, but that's just me. Congratulations!

Welcome Lula.

It is completely appropriate to refer to your MINI as:

MINI

MINI Cooper

Justa Cooper

Cooper

Or any combination of the above, or anything you wish.

Enjoy your black beauty.

Congrats! I picked up my new MCS today and am enjoying it just as much as I did when I picked up my prior MCS in November '05. The fun factor just gets better!
