Hi everybody, originally from Europe, I'm now working in NC and I'm a proud owner of a 2013 ice blue MCS R56.

I bought it few weeks ago, I'm now going trough a ~stage 2 tuning.

This forum is a goldmine of information, not just for US owners, and it is great having so many members with great knowledge about the car...happy to join!

 

Welcome to NAM! Where from Europe are you from? Post up some pictures of your ice blue R56 when you can.

 

Congrats and Welcome. Feel free to let us know if you need anything as we are just in Atlanta.

 

Thanks, I moved from Italy almost 2 months ago.

Waylen, thanks no worries, I already bought a Forge IC from you last week

 

Congrats and we need some pics.

 

Welcome to NC. Stop by our shop sometime.

 

Hi, sure, I already talked to Martyn (Manic) about few tuning aspects, he mentioned Mark will "take good care" of me

I'll get the new IC and full Akrapovic exhaust mounted by late July, so I was planning to stop by your shop in August to do the Manic ECU reprogram.

See you soon!

Here some pics:

 

Awesome! I am 3rd generation Italian. What part of Italy? I love that color on your MINI too!

 

Genoa!

 

Very nice. One side of my family is not far from there in Modena and the other is from Naples.

 

Cool! Modena is definitively a mecca for car enthusiasts!

 

Absolutely! And it has the Museo Enzo Ferrari! My grandfather got a private tour of it as a family friend works there. Very jealous.

 

Howdy Neighbor! Get on up to the Dragon! Motor on! SC has some good stuff too! Nice looking ride!

 

Welcome. G3 is also a Manic dealer. They are located by RDU airport. Just ask for Chris.

 

Glad to hear you talked to Manic, Swing by the shop anytime and we will definitely take care of you!

 

Hello, incredible but true, the car had to stay at the dealer for *4* months, and long story short I got it back with a new engine, transmission and pretty much everything else... I would love to post a report about the mods I added and will add... can someone tell me where I'm supposed to open such thread? (can't find a precise area for display so to say)

Thanks!
