Just wanted to say hello. Picked up my Indi Blue MCS on May 30th (giving a whole new meaning to Memorial Day) and have been loving it ever since. Due to having to actually go to work occasionally, I've only been able to put around 500 miles on my car since I got, but hope to rectify that soon.

My car is Indi Blue with white roof and stripes, a MC chrome grill (courtesy of my dealer), DSC, MF steering wheel, and cold weather package. I didn't opt for the whole premium or sports package because I didn't want a sun roof or 17" wheels.

So far I'm extremely happy and look forward to many more (s)miles and reading the many articles and comments in the Forum.

A big welcome to you. I've got an Indie S but w/ black. Love it. I haven't been able to put any miles on mine in 5 months.

This place is great. There have been a few times that I've been at my witsts end with some people on this sit, but thats what its all about.

Please post some pics of the new ride. If you need a place to store your pics online for free, let me know. I have plenty of room on my site for them.

We are a family. If you need stuff, let us know.

See ya,
Frank
