That's great! How many miles on yours and any modifications made by prior owners?

93,000 on it with no mods by the original owner. So far, I've put on an Alta intake and cat back exhaust, poly bushings front and rear and a Burger JB+. Looking to do a rear sway bar and coil overs next probably.

Welcome to NAM! You guys have had some hot weather this year. I bet you're looking forward to it cooling down soon. Have you ever made it over to the Scottsdale Pavilions for the Saturday night meets?

well welcome from a new Mini friend in Mesa. There is a mini meet up this weekend, it will be the first time we have visited this mini group (if we can make it), but it's nice to know there are mini folks out here in AZ.
