New Owner - Sacramento

Just got off the phone to seal the deal before finances tomorrow.

2004 Mini Cooper S with around 39,700 miles, silver with a white top, 6spd manual, panoramic sunroof, heated seats, Borla exhaust, some nice tires and wheels, all the good stuff with none of the miles! :P

So, besides being all giddy, what should I do next, post a pic-...



DONE! Well that's a pre-purchase picture, there will be better pictures once its in my possession tomorrow

Its coming with a lot of stuff, some EBC Greenstuff pads, what looks like a plug and play ECU tune for the OBD plug? Lots'a stuff, also the rally lights have a harness somewhere in the box of stuff but are not hooked up at the moment, just for show!

I'd post what I'm paying for it, and ask "did I do good!?" but I'd kinda like to know what everyone thinks its worth, hopefully by doing so providing me the byproduct of satisfaction in my dealings

Got it, drove it home, its mine... well /minemine/ after I pay off the loan, but close enough!

So far reaction are split between "woah, that's awesome!" and "yeah, well, those things fall apart when you get 50-60k on them so watch out"

That Borla exhaust sounds... a lot like the Borla exhaust I had on my VW GTI Mk-II 8v, this I am really, really digging... :P Braaawhiiirpoppgrumblerumble....

Ninja edit: Forgot, I will take pictures of the roof its an interesting design.
