New Mini Cooper S Owner

My Girl Friend and I just took delivery a 2013 Mini Cooper S Hardtop. This is my first mini, have owned Multiple VW's in the past but this is different. Only had it for a day but I must say it’s a great car to take into the corners! Look forward to posting on the NAM Forums.

Nice! I dig the dark grey. I just got a white S a few weeks ago, and I never want to get out of it! The more I drive it, the funner it is

I love the color.
The MINI experience is great. It has continued for nearly 5 years for me.
Enjoy

VERY nice. Lots of ex-VWheads here.
Personal opinion: the Mini is spiritually much closer to the A1/A2 GTI than any VW since...

I can agree with that. I had a 1991 GTI 2.0l 16v that i sold last year and the mini comes pretty close to that in terms of handling.
