New Bay Area Mini Owner

Hello Everyone,

I am the new owner of a 2012 Mini Countryman S All4! So far, I like it. I would like for it to have a little more giddy-up! I'm sure that will come with time and money! If you're in the San Francisco, East Bay, Bay Area, let me know if there are any Mini meets or cruises going on. I'd like to attend! Here are a few pics from a quick shoot I did the other day!

Welcome to NAM. Great pictures

And any MINI JCW is a great car. The Countryman All4 is a great handling car as well.

I would say that I concur with your statement, but I've never driven a JCW :(... One day though! I was actually looking at buying a 2009 JCW for 6500, but when I went to check it out the guys friend clearly had something against Puerto Ricans... I can't stand racism or people that just stand by and let it happen. I'm still in the market for a JCW though!!!

Went to Fisherman's warf and had lunch. Saw the golden gate bridge. We then went to Napa Valley. Had a very good time there.
