Just bought a 07 Mini Cooper S

This is my first Mini and I love it so far, granted I've only had it for 7 hours but I've already put almost 200 miles on it. It is pepper white. I'll clean it up and take some pic's and I'll post some then. I'm coming from a whole slew of AWD cars and I think this is going to take some getting used to but I hope it goes well. I just traded a 08 wrx with 296awhp for this and man it is taking some getting used to. Either way i'm happy with it.

I am hoping to find a set of Bentley wheels to toss on this bad girl. I'm in a major toss up in which style of bentley wheels but needless to say I think I'll go for it. It shouldn't be too much work to get them filled and redrilled.

Do you know what coilovers you'll go with?
