So its been about a month...

since I bought my Mini and all I can do is find more and more that I like/love about it.

I bought a '06 Mini Cooper S in hyper blue with white bonnet stripes equiped with the premium, sport, and cold weather (need it here in Chicago) packages and the Harman Kardon stereo upgrade.

Before purchasing it I was considering the Scion TCs, used Audi A4s, and a few other cars, but after test driving the Mini S the other cars didn't seem to matter at all.

As for now, I'm just going to enjoy it how it is and take a few basic autocrossing classes, but I hope to make some upgrades in the future with wheels and tires being on the top of my priority list.

Anyways, just wanted to say hi, and that I hope to become a pretty regular member of what appears to be a pretty well-run and informative community.

Oh yeah.. and the name's Thom if that wasn't obvious at first glance .

Thom,

Welcome! I am awaiting my MINI (it's on order). Be sure to check out the Chicago MINI Motoring Club (http://www.chicagominiclub.com)! The club is having a poker run this Sunday; I'll be there! Come on out if you can make it!

Michael
