4 cars in a three car garage
Yes it's true, the MINI gets parked sideways, behind the 2000 Honda S2000 and next to my (daily driver) 99 BMW 528i and my wife's 2006 Acura MDX. Other than the BRG MINI they are all black...the car wash guy loves us...

Let me see, a new Miller Dynasty 200DX, a Millermatic 210 with a 3035 spoolgun, a Miller Spectrum 375, Hobart 125EZ, & lastly a prototype welder that if I told you about it, I would have to put out a contract 
. Wifes Volvo 960, daughters BMW 325iC sleep outside & the 1978 VW Triple White Convert is still at the painters.

those are nice cars to, so do you have two bikes, for his/hers or is it case you break one of them?

the mini and a 07 audi a4 cabrio. thats about it in our 1000 square foot garage. parking the mini in that thing is like throwing a toy car in the grand canyon. i think that i could powerslide the thing in sideways and not hit anything.

That is AWESOME...how old are your kids, do you all live together with all those MINIs?
My little bro (17) has an '05 Saab 9-3, but I think he should trade it for a mcs. My parents, forget it, haha.

Like black much? Haha. Nice cars dude, the Texans have good taste. Well, some of us...
My MINI lives next to my Dad's car most of the time:
But, occasionally sleeps next to my Mom's car (whose car is usually kept outside...how I managed that one, I don't know)
Outside also lives my Dad's daily driver:

mmmmm 930 turbo...
I love those cars. I was fortunate enough to get to drive a modded (upgraded turbo and such) one a couple years ago. The owner said to wind it out a bit, and I did! What a rush (of turbo boost!).

how do you like the viper? i guess this is a lose lose question...i want you to say you love it because i want my dream car to live up to the hype and i want you to say you hate it so that i don't feel as bad if i don't land one.

Our oldest is 28 and the youngest is 23 and no they aren't living with us, at least not all the time It does look a little like a club driving event when they come to visit.

I really love the Viper but it's a lot less practical than the Mini (kinda like a motorcycle...you know right away that there's no room for more than two people and a SMALL piece of luggage) The Mini is great fun to drive any time and the Viper's a blast when the weather is nice (takes waaay too long to clean it up after driving in the rain!!) Both are serious FUN to have....just in different ways.

When my MINI gets delivered next month it's going to have to live with a couple Corvettes
and my wife's BMW 330i
and my motorcycle and lawn mower
and the pickup truck
Need to fill that one spot that's left in the garage and the MINI is the perfect size
