Got my CR Cooper S in January-a former Boxster S owner. Love the MINI. Had it 4 days, went skiing and banged my shoulder and couldn't shift for a while (had to borrow an automatic!) but now am back and love the car. Haven't figured out how to attach a photo yet but will work on it.

Chili Red/Black leather
All packages but 16 in wheels
Auto dimming/rain sensing
Replaced the painted grill with chrome and like the look

Look for me intown Atlanta!

 

welcome aboard. now for the ride of your life. sit down, strap in, shut up and hang on for the ride of your life.

 

So you like it better than the Box? How so?
Just curious cause my dad has one.

 

Congrats! I had mine for less than a week and love it! I am also thinking of putting in the chrome on my all black MCS. To me the painted grill makes it look like a Bass with it's mouth open. I am also thinking of putting the M7 lower grill in.

 

:smile: Excellent color choice on the MINI by the way... :smile:

Chow!

Count me in as curious as well, since the Boxster wins every shoot-out in its class. I must say, if I had the scratch, I'd have a serious handling rear wheel throttle steerable ride to go w/ my MINI, such as the Boxster or the Lotus Elise.

 

congrats on your MCS. haven't been able to drive mine for about 2 weeks
now...due to snow. I don't like to get my MCS dirty.

 

Like you, I also had a Boxter a year ago. The reason I didn't keep the car is because it was equipped with tiptronic shifter. Totally took the fun out of the car.

Had a Boxster S (still do, any buyers?) and liked it lots. But have had convertibles for 15 years and while great with top down, the Boxster can be tight and cramped with top up. Can't beat it for acceleration and handling but just decided it was time for a change.
