I am not new to MINI or the forum. Joined back when I ordered my 2004 R53 (after waiting on a yearlong waiting list) that I have driven nearly every day since.
I will always have a special place in my heart for my Indi blue R53, but I am loving my new Starlight Blue F56. It is like a refined adult version of my R53, but still fun and a lot more tech toys. I haven't seen a lot of starlight pictures on here yet, so I thought I would share.
Went for the Justa this time (which I actually love the eager engine) and the Iconic package. No regrets.
Hi and welcome to NAM, mczinn Great looking pair of Minis! I hope you keep the 04 too!
Your new Justa is beautiful and there is no shame in the Justa name we put on them. It purely means it does not have a supercharger or turbo! One of my favorite Minis was an 06 Justa rally model, which had a 5 speed manual and great suspension! I wish I still had it!
You look like you are in Mini heaven with the two Minis surrounding you! Congrats!
So, I just looked up the production dates for my 04 and my 19 and they were built exactly two days shy of 15 years apart (9/13/04 and 9/15/18)! I think the thing that I was most surprised about this time around is while the car technology has been really updated, MINI's website for tracking builds has not! Crazy that it seems to be basically the same system.
Congrats on the new Mini. Love the Starlite Blue. Great Picture have them sitting next to ea other. It always amazes me how big cars got over the years.
