The wife has a new MINI!!!

Well gang after working around the clock for weeks, I came up for air this week, the little lady and I are on vacation. I've been thrilled with my MINI... the wife is too. So, on a trip through MAG's lot yesterday we spotted a Cooper S, Auto, Red, Convertible. Long story short... it's in the garage. We're a two MINI family now and happy to be so!!

Great news Terry. Now you have a turbo & a supercharger. Looks like you have all the bases covered.

Now post some pictures of that red beauty.

Congrats Terry! Does she realize that she now has to partake in the craziness that is our monthly breakfast meet? I'm sure that Aaron will be more then willing to help her accessorize the new ride.

Wow!!!

Another two Mini family.

Congrats!!! I like the choice in colors also.

My Hubby just won't get out of his Shelby GT500 for a Mini. Not even the gas prices have budged him. Well, we do have the best of both worlds I guess. A gas hogging lover and sipper.

Just curious, SDM, was the Mrs a fan of MINIs before you were, or did she grow to love them as a result of your affection for them.

My SO didn't know much of anything about MINIs until I introduced her to them. She's still not the enthusiast that I am, but she loves her little PW Cooper.

Actually she loved the way they looked since their release... we never drove or owned one until this year... now we're both hooked. Her's is a nice car a red S with black top, black hood strips, nice wheels, HK speakers, auto, heated seats, xeon headlights, ft fogs, red dash, lots of chrome

Niiiiiiiiiiiice !!! And that CR really brightens up the garage ! You'll have a lot of fun as a 2-MINI family. You just might have a hard time deciding which MINI to drive on a given day.

Wow... I look at that new MINI and the possible mods start filling the mind. Got any planned ?

And hey, you've done a good job with the landscaping, too.

OK time to get off topic. Who did your driveway? We are looking into a patio and I love the look of your driveway.

Nice Mini it looks great!
