I just sat in my new MINI!!!!

It just came off the truck and looks absolutly wonderful... the deal has been made and I hope to pick her up tomorrow... they can't put a JCW Tuning kit on her since its an auto... but I think I can get that done in a few weeks when its approved... I brought the Owners Manual home and hope to look it over before going down to the Springsteen concert tonight... all in all a very GOOD DAY!!

I remember when I got my mini, I kept looking in the garage to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

Congratulations !!!!! NEW MINI FTW !!!

Wow Terry I was over at MAG today & was wondering if your car was there. I saw a Dark Grey/Black & thought, I wonder if that's Terry's?. Seems like it was. I'm happy for you friend.

Ohhh the memories, of driving up to MAG to look over my car in the lot the day it came. It took three days for my credit union to correctly put together the paperwork, those were the longest days of my life. I drive up to MAG each night to check out my car

I actually read it on here on NAM somewhere... my dealer could not confirm one way or the other.

Congratulations, I like the DS/B but I like DS/W much better.

Yours looks sharp, thanks for the pictures. More in the driveway with sun-light!

Your garage looks way too clean and organized. And your Mini looks great, can't wait to see it in person.

Terry, let me give you fair warning about showing Cooper your new car...he will drive it if the keys are left unattended
