O.k. I know I did this a while back before many Mexican Motorers frequented these pages, but now I'm starting to see more of you, so:
If any other Mexican Mini owners see this, answer this post and unite!
I'm hoping we can get together and form a MINI club in Mexico, maybe organize some meets in or around Mexico City.
I know you're out there!

P.S. - Hey mferguson or any other moderator, for that matter: How 'bout a regional forum for Mexico?
-Thanks..

Hola MINI fanaticos en Mexico:

Me gustaria saber mas acerca de sus carros. Que diferencias hay entre los MINI con especificacion Mexicana y los modelos en venta en los Estados Unidos?

Seria una buena idea tener un "meet" con duenos que residan en el Canada, Mexico y Estados Unidos.

Bienvenidos!

Saludos Cooper4us
La gran diferencia entre los modelos que se venden en México y en estados unidos seria la forma de venderlos, ya que no tenemos muchas opciones en cuanto a la forma de equipar los coche, hay 3 versiones para el mini normal y 3 versiones para el mini S, cada uno de estas versiones trae diferentes accesorios desde lo mas austero hasta lo mas equipado.
En cuanto al coche en si lo unico que cambio es que como los coches los traen de Alemania traen las especificaciones Europeas en cuanto al Smog check y no traen guantera hasta los modelos 2003 solo en la version mas equipada.

I sent a link to this thread to mferguson noting your request for a Mexico regional forum. Good luck with your Mexico MINI Club!

Otra diferencia es que nosotros no tenemos la opcion del DSC, cosa que no me fascina mucho, pero ya ni modo.
Oye Chobe o sea que si en algun momento me quiero ir a vivir a California mi coche no pasa el Smog Check? Yo pense que el catalizador era practicamente el mismo, ya me asustaste por que estoy pensando en irme para alla en algun futuro y me queria llevar el MINI..

Tal vez los de Mexico son mejores manejadores que nosotros en Los Estados Unidos y no se necesitan el "DSC"?? :smile:

I can read the Spanish messages in this thread and know what is being said, though.

Seeds should be planted for big MINI events in North America! Hee hee hee...Clover MINI-seed!

Well, this thread has gotten a lot more posts than I had expected, and so far it looks like only one other Mexican!
A big thank you goes out to all of the non-Mexicans who have posted and expressed their support, some of you even in spanish! (Very well spoken, I might add)
I hope we have not offended or alienated anyone with our sporadic use of Spanish, I do realize that this thread is posted in the "Mini talk" forum and until we have access to a Mexican regional forum I would invite my other Mexican "compadres" to post in English so as not to exclude anyone on this forum.
Again, thank you all for your interest and support and I certainly hope we can organize a North American MINI meet in the near future!
Happy Holidays to all, and Feliz Navidad!!

One more Mexican here to join.

So far, Calvin77, Chobe and Mexminime, let´s see who else joins, now that seeing a Mini on the streets in Mexico City is becoming more common (and distracting for other drivers

Cant wait for Mini, I was hoping it was going to be my Christmas gift but now I have to wait a couple more weeks.

I just have one comment regarding the language, until we get the special Mexican section I think we should keep posting in english because otherwise we would exclude other people, and the whole idea is to have a community as large as possible.
