Still driving both of them...we need the MINI for a commuter car!

 

2004 Pontiac GTO 5.7L V8/K&N. Blah Blah. MCS is half the cylinders 2x the fun! WHOOO HOOO

 

2007 BMW 550i soon to be gone -- still using till I get my new MCS.

 

I've owned two vehicles in my 5 years of driving (I'm 21). My first car was a 1992 Mazda 323 and it finally died on me after about three years. So I bought a 05 Suzuki GZ250 Motorcycle and have been driving it up till now and am so looking forward to having a car again. I can't wait till my Mini comes in

 

For the last 11 years, I have driven the same '89 S-10 pickup. Right now it has about a 50/50 shot of starting. About a year ago, we purchased a '96 Chevy Blazer. In January, I replaced the engine in it, and last week the whole car caught on fire while we were on vacation. Needless to say, I'll finally be ordering my MINI this week.

 

My MINI purchase is a departure from my purchasing decisions of late. Five of my last eight cars have been Ford Mustangs.

I sold this '07 Mustang GT Mach I clone in January '08 and I've been without a car since then!

 

Here's about forty years worth for me:

 

GMC Envoy for the past 6 years

 

The Mini will replace the Audi S4 and of course I am keeping the S5 we just got.

 

A 2003 Mini Cooper!

 

I had a 350Z (04). Nice car but had to change with the times. Gas wasn't too high when I purchased it but has gotten too rediculous since. Not feasible at all for me with all the running around I like to do. Love the Mini.......

15-16 MPG was kind of a bummer, though. (gas engine, not diesel).
