new mini owner

Hi all! I got my mini on October 26 and i'm lovin it! I ordered it from Hank Aaron Mini in Atlanta, GA. They were the best with customer service, I would recommend them anyday.
Back to the important stuff, my mini's name is courage because that is the name of the boat that brought him over. He is a 2006 British Racing Green Mini Cooper S with the white top, mirrors, bonnet stripes and 17 inch white wheels. I can't believe I was ever without a mini now, before I had a 2001 VW Bug and I loved it, but this is totally different! I'm looking forward to going on the dragons tail in may. I live about an hour away from there. Is anyone else going, have you been before, and can you tell me details?
I love my car so much I'm putting pictures with my thread so you guys can see how cute courage is. Talk to ya later.
Kelly B.

Courage is VERY cute

Congrats on the MINI! And there will be plenty of us at the Dragon in May. You're lucky to live so close to it!

Welcome aboard! Congrats on your new fun machine...

There is a TON of information here on NAM about the Dragon. Just go to the "Search" box in the top right corner of your page and type in Dragon. LOTS of threads to look through... And yes - we've been and yes it is a TON OF FUN...

If you only live an hour away - you can go all the time....

Courage is really sharp kellyb. I like the pic of him coming out of the dealership. Shows off that great color combination. Congratulations and welcome to NAM. And enjoy those fantastic western NC roads. (I visit Shelby and Morganton areas several times a year and hope to take Topper with me next spring.)
