Hello from Arkansas!

Hello all!

Yesterday I ordered my Mini Cooper S 4 door hardtop! Its "Thunder Grey" with a black interior, black mirrors and roof, and 17" black cosmos spoke wheels. It coming equipped with the cold weather package, premium package, wired package, and fully loaded package; along with rearview camera + PDC, XM radio, and automatic transmission.

It should be here in about four weeks and as soon as it does I'll post some pictures!

It's replacing a 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT (Toyota Matrix XRS) that I've put 140,000 miles on. I hate to let it go in a way, but it's time for something new!

I'm really excited for my delivery!

Are there any other forums that you guys switch between?

Glad to be the first to say howdy. I'll PM you another forum URL. Pictures are good! And welcome to the MINI community. This forum is full of technical information and it's all pretty much sorted by model and year so you should be able to find answers to most questions.
Be sure to connect with Ozark MINI. They put on a super rally in October up in Eureka Springs. This will be our forth adventure there. They have a line up of fantastic day trips and other fun activities. Get them online at: http://www.ozarkmini.com/

Congrats on your purchase. The four door is fast gaining a lot of favor. Good choice. NAM is is the most informative forum around along with Mini2.com. I use both daily. The forum that Fly'n Brick pmd you also has good info from some very seasoned MINIacs. MITO is a fun time. Eureka Springs in the fall is a great place to negotiate the twisties and enjoy the scenery. Post some pics when you take delivery
