2nd Mini....Black Eyed Purple Metallic...."BOO"

Im back after a one year, I purchased my 2nd mini s "BOO" is her name. For those of you members on here that haven't experienced this color you should.....AWESOME....She has Borla exhaust and intake, some pro-mini parts, and ALTA under the hood....She is a BLAST, alot more fun then my '04 DSMCS that I sold in October 2011...I missed Minnie so found a great replacement. Hope everyone enjoys looking at her....Sorry about the glare everyone.

Welcome back to NAM -- just curious, what makes this car more fun than your previous one?

Love that color, aka Purple Haze, IIRC.

CONGRATS!

@Kahnfucious......Both were fun, but I think it is the Borla exhaust and the intake, and reminds me of my Purple/White WS6 Ram-Air 6-speed Convertible TA I sold in 2008...1 of 54....(Katie)

@CR&PW&JB....Thanks for the input....I am bashing around the idea of getting the wheels done in white to match the stripes and roof.....Cant wait to get more $$$ saved to put new parts on.

Was telling my better half earlier how nice your MINI would look with white wheels. She (also a MINI enthusiast) has white wheels on her Countryman S A-4 and agrees. But she's not the one who cleans them.

If you do that, and I think the inconvenience is worth it, do yourself a favor and also switch to low-dust brake pads.

Very nice find and congrats - that's a great looking MINI. BEP/Purple Haze is probably my all-time favorite color.

Drive 'er in good health!

Ditto, welcome back to NAM and MINI ownership. Do you have any pics of the WS6 to share? In my "other life" I'm a bit of an F-body fanatic.

Glad to have you back and great to hear you're having so much fun with this "new" MINI!

Cheers,
Chris
