No Longer a Lurker/

Just wanted to say hello to all of you. I am pretty much dead set on buying a MINI as my next vehicle purchase. Specifically, a Cooper S BRG/White Rf,Sport, lthrette, Aero Kit, LSD, Trip, Anth Hdlnr, Arm Rest, Chkrd mirror cvrs, Roof Rack. . . + some other interior goodies. I've had hatchbacks all of my life and this seems the next logical step since I can't afford the new 3-Series optioned how I want it.

I am already a driving enthusiast and have been on the track several times with my previous vehicles. Let's just say I won't be taking this one on the track due to a previous mishap with an '02 Civic Si. . .(long story ...turn 7 at Summitt Point Raceway is a killer in the rain!! ).

I am also a member of mini2.com, but this site seems to be primarily us guys/gals in the U.S. I'm looking forward to gaining lots of insight, knowledge, and details on the Cooper before my purchase.

Cheers!!

T-
