yo new mini is tooo nice ... the interior is really nice and the way it drives is a bit tighter then my 08 which is always a good thing ... i havent fully pushed it but the good thing is the tech told me the way to break in minis is goes as fast and slow as you want just dont go the same speed for an extended period of time ... that def wont be hard ... soo let me know when you guys wanna do it again and im in, just needs to be sundays i work sats !!

I'd ask if you guys were down for some passengers but I don't think I can justify driving the Xterra 2 hours away just yet, looking forward to some pictures though!
