New R58

Hey guys, I'm the new girl on the block. Just got a 2013 R58 s coupe and want some opinions on what I can do to it. I know a bit about the inner-workings of cars (in general -- the basics) from working on my trailblazer and VW, but have zero experience with MINIs, so this is a whole new world to me. Any suggestions on favorite brands/mods/designs/etc.?

Welcome, fellow R58 owner here also. Some great info here in the R58 section on specific to the model. https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...talk-2012-379/

Good luck with the MINI and enjoy it. Also, would like to see pics of the car if you have them. If you need anything else let me know.

Welcome to NAM.

You will find an immense amount of information here on the Gen2 Mini between the threads, the members and the vendors. There are over 850 threads on your specific model.

Oh, and like the color.
