R56 now in at Hendrix

I happened to stop by Hendrix today wondering if they had the 07 in. They had just started taking them off the truck when I pulled up, and after seeing them in person I love it, the interior is great. Thought I would let yall know

Cool - I'll be there on Saturday - having a small oil leak repaired.
Something that they are starting to see in the newer Mini's..
But at least it's fixable!

I was at Century yesterday and received an extended ride with the tech after a PDI on a 07 S. I was impressed with the R56.

Hope to be at Hendrick on Saturday afternoon and get a chance to drive one.

Still MINIless in Charlotte.

Miniless

I can envision a new Mini in your garage in the not-to-distant future.

Miniless George I still have the ladies Mini shirt you won at the charity drive and was at Hendrick sat morning but I have it in my Mini when we do cross paths! I sort of like the new ones but going to have to take some getting use too. There are thing I love and things that are not so kool. Don't like the pieced bumper in front and think some of the plastic is pretty cheap looking not like the 02-06 but thats just my opinion. Do like the varity of interiors and will probably be in market for new one next year. Will have all Electric Blue for sale then.

You know, from the pics on the net, I thought the dash was too busy, etc.

I saw them up close and personal at Hendrick when in for my 10K service, and I gotta tell you, that interior is alright and the new aero kit is GREAT!

They did a really nice job with it. Now my only complaint is the non-functional hood scoop, and Steve said that may change too for certain editions.

BTW, I didn't drive it, b/c I didn't want to subject somebody else' car to my driving style! ;-)
