I finally got my hands on my new Mini, picked it up at Halifax BMW on Wednesday afternoon. It is awesome!! My salesman was great, he threw in the floormats and a Mini ball cap, and my wife and daughter surprised me with a Mini fleece sweater. My Cooper is pretty standard, no options, British Racing Green with black leatherette. I just love driving it, haven't had so much fun since I had a motorcycle.

I was out the door this morning at 5:45 for a nice 2 hour drive along the winding roads of the East Coast, what a blast, almost no traffic to get in the way.

I'm in the process of uploading some pics, they should be in the gallery shortly.
