So I was at Motorwerks MINI...

I had to go drop off an insurance card or something and I told my MA if there was any chance that i could see my MINI. She told me that she had no idea where it was. I start looking around the showroom when I see a Hyper blue MINI with 16 in runflat tires with the 5 point star rims, blue leather interior and other stuff that was on mine. I asked my MA if it was mine and she checked the VIN and it turned out that it was my baby. I was so surprised.
Peace Mexi

Who did you work with at Motorwerks?

I was just in yesterday and saw that one. Mine is similar. I have it on order.
I just found out I had to switch to manual transmission because the automatics are having supply issues. I would have to wait to the end of 06 or even 07 to get any automatic minis, so now I am getting manual.

It really didn't bother me to get a stick, but my wife didn't want to learn how to drive stick. I guess I am the only one who gets to drive it now. yeh!!

Squeal them heading out the showroom and down the ramp!

Those guys lost mine for a month before I was able to see it, "oh we don't know which storage lot it's in" and it had 40 miles on it when I finally picked it up. Since then they've been great though.
