New to the forum

Hello all,

I'm Greg a new owner of a 2013 cooper JCW convertible. This is my first Mini and I'm loving this little beast. I'm from Southern NH I use to drive a 2011 VW GTI with a bunch of modds. A fun car but wanted something different. I found this car and knew not a dam thing about it. Did a bunch of research thus far and finding alot of info and yes my head hurts from the research LOL.

Any advice on preformance parts or where to buy would greatly be appreciated. I a bit confused about which brands are good and bad meaning throwing cel's and what not. I would like to stay on a good path with this car just like the GTI.

Thanks in advance

Greg

Hey Greg welcome, I am rather new myself but the following sites have offered me plenty of options for aftermarket parts.
Minimania.com
M7tuning.com
Outmotoring.com

I've been a Honda man all my life, funny to meet a 'rival' enthusiast on common ground. Enjoy your Mini and welcome to the club
