I'm New - I Scored!
 
1 Attachment(s)
Greetings fellow motorists,

Soon to be Mini owner in CT. My new-to-me 07 MCSC will be ready to pick up from the stealer on Thursday. Pretty well loaded, except on the mileage front, with only ~25k to date. I hope to change that over the coming years!

I've been an X5world (now Xoutpost) contributor since its inception, and I hope to continue the tradition here. Seems like a great forum with some seriously knowledgeable owners! I've been lurking and learning while on the prowl for my new toy. I expect it to be the solution to my not-so-critical-midlife crisis.:grin:

I'm off to work on some left calf exercises--need to get in shape for Thursday! Can't seem to get the smile off my face!

Let's Go Rangers!

I checked that site and it seems that there hasn't been any activity there in over a year.

Welcome to the vert club. Got my 2012 in Oct, and if the temp is over 58 I think about putting the top down.

:confused: There isn't much planned for runs in the winter but come spring there is always something going on. There is a run in LI at the end of the month and a couple other runs planned for CT in March as well as some for April.

welcome and congrats on the new ride. I thought I got lucky finding my 06 with just 40k on it but you definitely beat me out with just 25k, it's barely broken in :wink:

p.s. life long Rangers fan here so I definitely approve of your username :thumbsup:
