New-ish R53 in SoCal

I was hooked on the Mini (1st Gen) during the search for a new daily driver. It made sense since Ive been in the BMW world for so long. Ive owned various 3 series (M3, 318is, etc), a couple of e39s, and kept my e38 in the garage. Here's a picture of the new S.

Great find! You'll like the chrono pack. I do. Next think about a 19 or 22mm rear sway bar. It will redefine your MINI. Congrats

Yeah, I definitely like the options that it came with. On today's agenda- Windows tinted and fresh oil change.

You're very welcome. Well, if you ever find your way up North towards the LA/OC area we have a fun little quarterly Coffee & Cars With Pelican event. Next one is October 17th. Had about 450+ cars at the last one in July.
