It got to a bone-chilling 50 sumthin degrees here right before Thanksgiving. The car ran INCREDIBLY well! It made a huge difference in throttle response and power, especially in lower gears. I miss it. On the coldest day, it happened to be the 1 time I let my wife's dad drive it. He was impressed!

BTW, 20 degrees this morning. The MINI fired right up, let it run for a few, make my way to the highway, and listen to the beautiful SC music!

Your right i wouldn't. I went to Maine last year. Well i don't have what you would call a thick jacket and i only took dockers with me for pants. I got laughed at everywhere i went because i was frezzing. About 3 days into my trip i was told it was in only in the teens, and i was lucky it wasn't getting cold for this time of year. If thats not cold to you then i don't know what is.

Yea, you and me both!

Although, it can feel that way sometimes with the wind.
