Tomorrow's the day...
 

Tomorrow afternoon I hand over keys of my 05 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport to her new owner, and say goodbye to 4 doors, 6 cylinders, 32" all-terrain tires, lift kit, dozens of other mods and fellow friends over at Toyota Nation and Tacoma World.
I'm doing this to turn around and drive straight over to MINI to hopefully purchase my 2011 Midnight Black R56. We're lucky here in Los Angeles to have so many MINI dealers within an arm's reach but only one had what I was looking for...

6-speed Getrag (a long debate with myself since I do commute in LA. I truly believe if you can drive stick (and anyone can) this is the car to have it in) :grin:
Premium package
Sport package with black conicals and black xenons
Anthracite
Bluetooth/iPod
Carbon color line
Auto-dimming rearview mirror and rain sensors/auto headlights (not necessary)
Center armrest

Would have loved to get the Connected, but I can't find it available with the specs I want and am not willing to order and wait. Can't have it all!

Mods planned: (became addicted with my Tacoma and fear the same with my Mini) :eek2:
30% tint all around
17" Breyton gts-r wheels
Wet Okole custom seat covers (had them in my Tacoma and loved them!)
Vinyl-wrapped headlight rings and grill trim
4" Alta stubby

I imagine I'll get around to springs and intake/exhaust at some point but I really have to pace myself this time.

Welcome to the MINI world! Since you have already been bitten by the mod bug your MINI will be even better once you add your extra personal touches.
Enjoy:thumbsup:

Welcome to NAM and congrats on the new MINI! Can't wait to see pics.

Nice truck, I know you're sorry to see it go :sad:, but I'm sure you found it a good home.
