New MINI

Thanks to all who have helped and answered countless questions over the pass couple weeks. My MINI was officially delivered to me today, however has to go back for a little check up with service on Wednesday , for a few last minute accessories, therefore I won't have pictures until Saturday (I have to go out of town right after I got my car, for a family event).

MINI COOPER
Oxygen Blue\White
Auto
Premium
-Sunroof
-MFSW
-Auto A/C
HiFi
Auto Rain/ Lamps
White Turn Signals

Being installed on Wed.
-White Bonnet Stripes
-Checkered Board Dash

At first I missed my old car (learned to drive on it-first car), unitl I drove the MINI for the first time. I didn't even drive it from Downtown MINI, I let my dad drive it back to work. He helped me buy it and it's a big privilage and responsibility he and my mon are allowing me to have. I drove it home from work, and well fell in love with it. Extremely happy right now!!!

Yeah I bought it off the lot. It's my first new car so it's okay, but in about 7 years when I get an MCS I will build my dream car. However the one I have now seems to be pretty close, I love it!!

Okay, today is Tuesday. You don't have to take it back to the dealer until Wednesday. So why do we have to wait to see pics ? Was your camera broken today ??????
