1st time Mini Owner!

Hello all! Im completely new to Mini Coopers. Ive alway kind of liked them. Im 23 and have owned many many cars since 16. From several Pontiac Grand Prixs to 2 Jeep Wranglers and a Cherokee to 2 Subaru Foresters a XS and XT both 5 speeds to a Pontiac Fiero 2m4.

I work for a small car dealer and seen a nice looking brg 06 Mini Cooper S 6mt on steelies (I'm a sucker for steelies lol) at a dealer auction and decided I had to buy it for myself.

I don't know much about Mini's but I know they are fun.lol
I don't want to go crazy on it but would like it a little quicker, sound meaner, and look more aggressive.

I'm a sucker for steelies, too. I've always wanted to have a set of 8-inch steelies made for a R53, no bigger than 16", painted black. I love the look on your car: the only thing I might do is put some spacers to fill out those wells a little. Welcome!
