Howdy!

Howdy!

I'm new to the world of Mini and new to this board, so I just wanted to say hello how we do in my corner of Texas.

I recently bought a Indi Blue 2003 MCS. It's got all the bells and whistles minus the sat-nav. I absolutely love it. It is just so much fun to drive. As soon as I recover from the large debit to my bank account to cover the down-payment, I plan to 'tinker' quite a bit.

I am leaning towards an Alta Intake and Invidia Catback right off the bat, with a pulley, wheels and tires, etc coming later.

Oh, and I am a 20 year old Mechanical Engineering student at Texas A&M University who is crazy about cars. I actually hope to intern with BMW in the coming year, so if anyone has any contacts, I would be greatly appreciative. I'll put pictures in my gallery as soon as someone explains to me how to do that.

It'd be nice to meet everyone, so feel free to introduce yourself and your car. Thanks, and "Gig 'em"

coupla pics posted. I will take more this weekend; I had two exams this week, so no time.

I broke down and ordered the Invidia G200 exhaust, and I am about to get the blackout taillight covers. This is too addicting. I will have to tell my friends to lock my computer when I am drinking .

Thanks for the welcome. Def gonna check out the Lone Star Mini Club.
