My Mini has arrived!

Ordered on June 6th, in my hands on July 15th! Overall, really fast but the wait was hard. Lauderdale Mini is amazing, Judy, Bonnie and Michael are excellent people to work with. This car is really amazing... the stupid smile I have on my face cannot be removed the second I pop the key in the ignition. It's got mining-dumptruck-sized personality and yes, it pops and burbles!

My options were Sport, Premium 2, anthracite headliner, rear fogs and Harman-Kardon sound (which is awesome sounding).

Pretty sure the fiancé and I will fight over who gets to run the little errands around town, but I can hide the keys maybe? This little beast gets up to 50MPH in a hurry, gotta keep myself out of trouble

So excited to officially be a Motorer with all you guys!

I saw a BRGII with white roof recently and it's sharp in person ! Your pics are nice but don't do it proper justice.

Congrats and happy motoring !!

Congrats on your new MINI. Glad you wait is over. It's now time to motor but don't forget to wave.

All this talk about the royal baby... I got my royal baby last week, cept mine weighs about 2700 pounds and doesn't wear diapers...

Just got the windows tinted to the legal limit in Florida, it's a must.

In that Florida sun/heat, did you invest in some Crystalline film for the windshield too ?

No I left the windshield as is, it's against state law and my tint guy basically says if you go too dark it attracts police attention easily. As it stands now, it has reduced the level of sunlight incredibly, good enough for me =)
