Wow, what a hoot. The new MCSa is all I wanted it to be. Great delivery process and all the power an old guy could want for this small of a package.

Almost had a full convert to MINIDOM as we arrived at the dealer, my wife noticed a sharp 07 yellow MC automatic bright yellow with chequered roof and mirrors, instant love. Thought I was going to have to leave with two MINIs tonight. She's still thinking, but she really likes the Jeep GC (her daily driver and long trip car) and she knows she can steal mine anytime (darn).

So, details with pictures at this link or check out more of my MINI pictures at my picasa albums.

Congratulations! I'm trying to get my wife interested in our second MINI.
Similar to yours, but with lounge leather!

 

Wow... Congrats man.. happy for you hope you are enjoying every moment since you got your mini... MA told me to pick my Mini on Friday :D

 

Nice looking motor, and youv'e gota love the way they unveil it

 

SWEET! Glad you finally got it! Talk to you soon!

 

A beauty no doubt

In Colorado with a white roof? How will you know where the snow stops and the car starts .

Congratulations!! The color is stunning!

 

Congrats, Don, on your beautiful new MINI!! Let us know when wifey joins the cult and gets her own MINI!

Giovanna (is that her nickname?) needs her own MINI.....definitely!

 

Congrats! Love that auto!

 

Congrats ! Beautiful MINI, enjoy it !

 

Old Guys Rule ! Nice!

 

Beautiful, Don. Hope it only gets better from here!

 

Very niiiiiiiice! Congratulations, and Happy Motoring

 

It has been a fun day, not enough real drive time, but I did have to clean the brake dust off the wheels

korby -- yes we do!

MINIclo -- still thinking on the yellow MC, it's her decision, but it's an MC or MODs, I wonder how I can make her Jeep a little nicer, wheel bling perhaps.

aeroguy -- white roof, snow, no problem. I will put up a real long antenna, like the snow poles along Trail Ridge Road. Now that will be a nice drive in July.

Thanks to all of you for the comments, I will put up some better pictures I hope to take along the twisty roads this weekend.

Very nice! Motor on!

 

congrats! but what's an MCSa? what doe the a stand for??

 

6 sp automatic

 

dreman.. to answer plus a little more.

Yes the (a) stands for the Steptronic automatic (6 speed) with Agtronic Paddle on the MFWL steering wheel. I have been having a blast with the paddles. Yes, you can overrev the engine with the automatic in manual, so much for the automatic (stoopid proof) upshift while your blasting around.

So, I imagine I have violated my break-in rules at least 5 times. Hummm.

Oh well, break them in as you want to drive-em. Worked with my Alfa race engines.

Of course at about 2500 miles I will do the first owner oil change.

Enjoy,
Don

 

Hi, I named my MCSa (scooter). it just fits. I find myself very constrained by the breakin rpm limit, so does scooter.

I put up some better pictues in this thread.
