Just bought my First Mini

Hello everyone! Last week I picked up a new-to-me manual 2015 F56 Mini Cooper S - pictured below.

It's my first Mini, but this car is actually a step up in size from my last car! I spent the last four years daily driving a 2001 Miata. My new job has me commuting on the highway, so I wanted something that will be a little quieter and more comfortable without losing the small-car fun factor. I'm also hoping to get into Autocross this year and HPDEs a little further down the road. I really love motorsports and am looking to enter that world as a hobbyist.

Nice to e-meet all of you! I'm looking forward to Mini ownership and being a part of this community.

Welcome to the forum. Thanks for posting the picture. Looks great. Do you use winter tires for the snow in your winter commute?
