I haven't heard anything yet from Monmouth but it is bound to happen in the near future as orders are being accepted very soon.

I was at the movie night at Prestige and they had three Coupes on display. One of which was brought to the drive-in.

Sweet! I saw that post on MA. It's just that MOmouth is not real keen on getting event info out like Prestige and MINI of Mo-town are. I ll have to give them a call tomorrow.

Just spoke with Danelle and she said they didn't have anything going. I left a message with Joe and sent an email.

Maybe they don't have as much in the budget for events? They are fairly new, correct?

They don't need a real event, just having the Coupe is an event!

This is true, I guess soon enough they will have one since they will start delivering the actual models in the fall.

Mo-Town will be having the traveling coupe show but they don't have a firm date...just like the Countryman Travel Show...will be in the showroom for three days and have a BBQ...

I have always had good dealings with them.

Service and Sales.

Depends on what you need to get done. I take my R52 to ECP Auto Service in Newark for everything.

Frank DeSilva is the owner and his brother Rui is the tuner (VW, AUDI, BMW)...Oil Changes are under $70 using European Specs Synthetic or you can bring your own...I'm not mechanically inclined, just ask the Frantic One...If you don't have to get dirty and driveway doesn't have oil stains...it's the way to go.

Frank owns a MINI R53...his prices are fair.

You can take any car to Frank and he gets it done right...

Frank can change RFs out or RFs on, seasonal tire/wheel changes, pulleys, brakes, one-ball mod, error code checks (BMW Scan Code Reader/Gauge)...etc.

Great info, thanks! I will have to consider going to him for some things with my car.

I was asking about Morristown because I'm attempting to convince my dad to lease or buy a Justa. He drives a Chevy Express (or what I call...the church van) and he spends so much on gas when he doesn't always need a big vehicle. So I thought...why not go with something that has good gas mileage and a lot of fun to drive!

My wife goes to Brian Blute at Morristown...His girlfriend, Lauren works at Allentown...whose mother, Sherri, just bought a Justa in Spice Orange, who went to the Jim Thorpe Run and MOTD with us.
