Just sharing my quick MINI drive
Hi all,
My uncle's Viper was rear-ended so it's in the shop and he rented a MINI. He brought it to work today and I got to take it for a spin. Being a rental MINI, it's not a stick or supercharged version, but I must say it was very fun. I have only admired the MINI's from afar, and while my heart yearns for a stick "S", this was pretty cool to zip around in and get a taste for what you all already know. I came back with a smile on my face. Fun stuff for sure.
Maybe when my wife's Camry is ready to be retired.........

Yup, I can see my next conversation with my wife:
"You know, I never realized how many miles there is on that "old" 2002 Camry. And what was that noise? I think a bearing might be going out in the _________ "(insert whatever sounds expensive). :D
