Introducing myself: Bought an '06 MCS last friday!!

Hi guys!!

New to NAM, but this is my first 2006 mini cooper s and im REALLY lovin it..
My MINI was priced at around $27k and i got it knocked down to $25k, and then with taxes and everything it was around $27k. put $8k down.
first car i test drove. i bought. hahaha. it had all the options i pretty much wanted (except sport but oh well)

here's some pictures!! sorry for the bad quality. took it with my phone. couldnt find a camera.





but hopefully i get a warm welcome from all and start to get as knowledgable (if that's a word. O.o) as you guys.
OH..and i live in severna park, maryland. so if you see my car.
holla!!

Welcome !

Nice wheels and good color choice, but for the love of God, put some stripes on that poor, nekked MINI !!

Serverna Park is a nice area ! Close to Annapolis, Baltimore, and the Shore. Gotta love it.

Sweet MINI!

Congratulations on your sweet MINI! That is very sharp. About your window tinting...what % film is that? Also, did you have any issue with the little window down/up thing when the doors are opening and closing? I want to get my windows tinted. Any advice for the "tinter"?

POWER to the MINI's!!!!

THANKS EVERYONE!! xD

but i put on 20%. and i didnt have an issue with it cause i tinted it. i made sure it wouldnt peel. basically wat i do is open the door and get a screw driver or anything metal like that. and push the door part. where it clings onto the metal part. if you get wat im saying. making the door think the door is closed. and the window will go up. and you just tint it as is. =] sorry for the bad explanation. x]
