Hello from Pennsylvania

Hello Everyone,

I'm Cameron or Camster if you like. A new 2006 Mini Cooper S owner, just picked my Mini up this past weekend. Fell in love with it in Hyper Blue and I knew it was going to be mine. I am formerly (and temporarily still) a Mazda Miata owner, until I sell it. I'm hooked on how much fun it is compared to the Miata, and glad I finally found a replacement. Anyways just dropping in and saying hello!

Since most post are useless with out pictures! Here are some cell pictures till I get a chance to shoot some good ones. Looking forward to get involved with a new community! Thanks!

I as well still have my 1990 Mazda Miata. You will love the power increase in the Mini but on those rainy days you will miss the fun of real-wheel drive!

I sold my NA before getting involved with Mini's. Correction, I sold my NA after 8 years of ownership because of Sciatica issues and needed to find a replacement. My son has had a Mini for a few years and I've always loved them a distance. After searching around for a suitable replacement for the Miata and eliminating most options, I decided to bite the bullet and spring for a Mini Cabrio. (Gotta feel the sun on my thinning hair!!) I'm still on a quest, but I'm narrowing down the field and hope to be a Mini owner within the next few weeks.

Congrats on your new arrival. Enjoy!

I'm in Bethel Park 10 miles south of Pittsburgh. My Miata is not for sale but I'm down for a cruise in either car.
