Rudie is finally here! Well, he was dropped off at East Bay on Friday but I was in Vegas so I could only pick him up this evening. So without further ado, here is Rudie's pictorial narrative, the abridged version:



















I might not look excited in the photos (three sleepless Vegas nights will do that to you) but I assure you, I was ecstatic on the inside. Just to give you an idea, I was offered and happily accepted $500 in trade for my previous ride, so this is a big change to say the least. The first freeway onramp was a revelatory experience and it only got better from there.

The vitals: LaB/B, LSD, Xenons, MFSW, white turn signals, arm-rest. And soon, I can fit him with some new shoes:

 

Congrats! can't wait to see those rims on your ride.. :D

 

Very nice! Congratulations!

 

beautiful colour there mate. looks stunning. get the wheels on sharpish and get pics up!

 

I know you said that the car is Li (lightning blue)...but from the pictures, it looks like the car is laser blue. Either way, beautiful car.

 

Congrats on the new MINI....let the adventure begin!!!!!

 

Nice!

 

congrats! great looking setup....the wheels will look great on that color also.

Are those the black or gunmetal finish??

Where did you get your Sportmax's?

 

Very nice looking car, hope to see you on the road some day.

 

It is Laser Blue- I think he was so excited he spelled it wrong.

Congratulations on scooping up your new ride, but don't you dare put those shoes in without a proper drop.

BTW, you forgot to post pics of your previous, ride, "Beast!"

 

Congrats ygblat! Very cool...

 

Sa-weeeet!

 

Congrats! Love the color combo! Black tops rule!

Enjoy it in good health!

 

Good lookin car! Enjoy. Can't wait for the pics with the rims...

 

Congratulations!! What a beautiful MINI ...and a vast improvement from your trade-in

 

Yeah I forgot to mention that. Those wheels will look really good on that color combo. PIC PICS PICS!

 

Nice to see a MINI that arrived on the Titus being delivered. Excellent, the wheels will look great under the blue.

Enjoy, did you make enough up in Vegas to pay for the ride

Looking good.

Sweet ride! Congratulations to you and may you have many years of Happy Motoring!

 

Nice.... and remember, whats happends in vegas, stays in ...... ;-)

 

Thanks everyone
Can't wait to see all the other NorCal Titus cars finally get delivered!

The color is indeed laser blue, which should look really proper with some gunmetal 18's and a healthy drop, all in the works and pics forthcoming.

PM sent

 

Congrat's bro!!! Looks great! Will have mine tomorrow. Let me know when everything is done.

 

Very nice color. Congrats!

 

Congratulations--looks great! Funny that you have the same "deer in the headlights" look I had--must be the surprise of FINALLY getting your baby. I know I was happy that the wait was finally over!

How was Vegas? Did you make enough to pay for the car?

 

Thanks! Can't wait to see your ride tomorrow, take lots of pics! Oh, vodkarocket and I went on some nice twisties today, part-throttle 3-4k rpm and the car was a real champ. Can't wait for the coils to eliminate that body roll (it took more time because JIC had to source a different rear spring for me since I got custom rates).


Heh, let's just say I didn't lose enough to not be able to get it

 

Must have kept enough for those custom springs too! Enjoy, I will be picking mine up on Wed. late pm.
