I bought my MINI originally intending for it to be my 'fun daily' to let my 350Z be my weekend/trackday/autocross car, but after getting more familiar with my "new" R53 and driving it around I may have a new track car also!
Hi and welcome to NAM, Lance!
I am a gen 1 fanatic and own an 06 MCS JCW (R53) model and it is raw and most fun to drive!
I love the feel this model gives me. It drives like no other, I have driven. I have owned several.
Show us some pics!
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I look forward to being involved in this community. I've driven a couple of 2nd gens, but I agree, the 1st gen has a totally different feel. I love it!
