Hello NAM!

New owner here...picked up a new to me 2008 MCS last week. Still getting used to FWD. I came from a 2004 Mazda RX-8. The 8 was my DD/Track car for over 9 years of driving fun...but family plans required a change. So did gas prices.

I am an architectural project manager, photographer and track junkie...I have already found this site to be very useful. I look forward to becoming a part of this ownership group.

The ride....as it is now.




Next weekend the MachV springs come off, TSW linears go on, camber plates, wheel studs, and some other stuff to get ready for the first track event for the car at the end of October.

I am sure I will be asking some n00b questions around the board very soon...

 

Welcome to NAM and the MINI world.
Nice looking MINI. I especially like the scoop.

Good luck on the track.

 

 

Welcome, I think I remember that car being listed a few weeks ago FS on the local MINI message board.

 

Hello and welcome aboard. Looks like you have a great start for a Mini and sounds like you have some great plans to come. Good luck with the new toy and will see you around the site.

 

Welcome to NAM TR56! Nice ride!

 

I think it is the m7 scoop. But not sure. It's odd to buy a car and not know what's been done to it...

 

It might have been. Not sure. I bought it form the Dodge dealer in Alpharetta.

 

Thanks for the welcome. I am happy with the start point on the car and am looking forward to getting to know the car. I have been reading up on the forum a lot...

 

Thanks!

 

Welcome to NAM, TR56 and congrats on your new MINI. Thanks for the pic right up front. You MINI looks fantastic. Happy motoring and please don't forget to wave.

 

You are near Way Motor Works. GO THERE. Don't deal with any other mechanic if you're in Way's backyard.

 

Thanks Mr T..I will do my best to wave. .. the windows have been down enjoying the sounds of the turbo.

 

Yep. Already going to see them next week. ..they have already commandeered my paycheck! ..I have a friend who had a 2009 JCW so he has passed on some good knowledge. But I am looking forward to the new project.

 

Nice ride I have the same color combo on order

 

Thanks. It is a nice combo. Its my first red car...always been gray or black.

 

I like red cars, you enjoy it, keep posting what u are doing

 

I will be around. I am a forum junkie...
