Meet Zippy

Picked Zippy up on Monday and have been driving like crazy so this is the first chance to post a picture. More to come.

Thanks..It was a really hard to choose but I had to go with Auto. I have a bum ankle and the Bay Area traffic would be to much.

b13mini - I'm sure I'll have those moments of wishing I choose manual, but the auto has plenty of gogo.

Zippy looks great and I love the name!

@B13 MINI - Don't worry. You'll love the auto and if you don't, you always have the paddles to shift manually - best of both worlds!

I don't mean to poke fun at peterpan's spelling here about 'manuel' vs. 'manuel' (I make plenty of spelling oopsies) but it occurred to me that Manuel would be a cool name for anyone's manual Mini
