Well I am currently trying to sell my mini because I am on a tight budget (anyone interested??). If I didn't have the Mini, I would probably go for the *R32!* That is a sweet car, but cant afford a nice car right now. So I'll keep dreamin.

Back when I was looking to unload my Saturn, around '04, I checked out an RX8. After inspecting it carefully, inside and out, I had decided it was what Austin Powers might call, a little 'too too.'

My TTS?

will be what else? BLACK! Blacker than a well digger's butt.

Holy crap is that car FAST! They print 0-60 in 4.9 seconds but I hit 60 in second gear and it seems faster than that.

Hmm if I didn't own my MINI and there were no such thing(as the BMW version is concerned).... I'd honestly probably still be driving the '98 Civic Ex 2-door that I had right before. If I had to buy a new one, and considering my budget when I bought my MINI and currently as well, it'd probably've been something like VW's GTI or something...another smaller hatch. I honestly was really thinking I'd get a VW hatch way back when.... that is until I started exploring the new MINI
