I bought a Countryman - my first Mini - a month ago. I love the car to pieces. My first car ever was a 1990 Honda Civic CRX Si and the Mini's performance and kick make me feel like I am in high school all over again. The toys (mine has Nav and Mini Connected) are outstandingly futuristic. I get excited about jsut driving at night so that I can get the ambient lighting experience. I could go on but there are few features I don't go out of my way to enjoy every week.

The main reason I joined the site and wanted to post was to let you all know how helpful this site was both for purchasing and figuring out the car. Most of you probably don't realize how much forums like this make the difference between a horrible and awesome car buying experience, but you certainly have made mine much easier and pleasant. Thanks!
