Hey what's up everybody? I posted a couple of times, but I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Faisal. I just got my MINI on 1/29/10. Even though it's not an S, I absolutely LOVE my car. It's my favorate car so far. I learned to drive on my dad's old 94 Mazda MPV, then I drove 99 GMC Jimmy, next I had a 93 Nissan Maxima, and my last car was a 03 Honda Accord Sedan. I loved my old Maxima, but this car is by far the funnest car I've ever had. I've wanted a MINI badly for the last 5 years. I've worked hard to get to this point. This is the first car that I got on my own. No mommy or daddy's help. So I feel really good about it.

No pics yet because it has been nothing but snow for the last 3 weeks here in Virginia, but they're coming soon. This forum actually helped me a whole bunch. There is a wealth of info on here. I mean I've been searching and looking through this place for the past 3-4 months. So I like to say thank you for that. Anyways, I'll catch everyone around.

 

Hey Faisal welcome to the forum, we look forward to the pictures as soon as the weather clears. Good luck and ENJOY your MINI!!

Hey Faisal stop that garbage of "even though it's not an S"! A MINI's a MINI, and they're all fun and neat to drive,and just a tad different to all other cars on the road. I'm not really into performance, speed, and how fast it can go. Yeah I bought a preowned S, but the major reason was because S is my first initial. Spend another $1-$10 and buy a decal and or badge, give your lil guy a name, and BAM you just Moded your "justamini" to a unique performance car.
