R56 What else is in your garage???
Just the MINI right now, my parents won't let me take up anymore room in their garage. 
Someday (maybe when I graduate and get a real job):
1.) Austin MINI
2.) Lotus Exige or Evora

I could never get the cape to work....this was the next best thing.
Of course, I am totally full of crap. But I did see this go on ebay for $100k+. Friggin SWEEEET. I got more pics if anyone's interested. Was supposedly one of the models used in the movie (they had 3 or 4 made).
My garage is non-existent. In my driveway, a beat up 97 Mazda protege (complete with duct tape) and a 2001 Nissan Sentra.
Used to have a 1988 325is 5 spd. Car was awesome....and i miss it so.

me personally, i just got my license 7 months ago, the mini is my only set of wheels, and i'm fine with that, i love it.
however, there are a few advantages to being a teenager and living with mom and dad. one of them is a black suburban with tinted windows and chrome bumpers; the other one is a 1992 saab 900 turbo cabrio that, in its condition and color (black exterior, beige interior) given its age, looks like some kind of gangster car.
wouldn't mind bulking up on euro compacts; eventually i want to have everything from a classic morris mini to a tuxedo black S5, with a few nissans and an RX-8 thrown in for good measure (and by good measure, i mean when the dollar tanks against the euro and the pound again, and it becomes even harder to afford keeping minis and audis on the road, so i can justify driving japanese.)

I started looking for a larger car with a flat back seat area for our Greyhounds and Doberman. We came across a used 2004 Porsche Cayenne S and that was the end of the hunt. I'll bring it home tomorrow or Monday. It is perfect for the dogs' car. They were anxious for it to find a home and it was under $20K.
We are getting a new Greyhound 7-month old pup on Friday. He played hard with other Greys at the farm and fractured his front right leg. They ended up having to amputate it, so now he is a tripod pup.
Anyway, I knew the Nissan Titan would be too difficult for him to get into, so the hunt began. The Clubman might be too hard for him, too, plus I wanted a car with enough room to take all the dogs out if we had a fire or something.
Once I get the Porsche detailed I'll see if the Clubman will allow it in the garage with him. Can't believe we got a Porsche. I'm still saving for the MINI Speedster though.

My wife's Mazda5 then on my side, my Mini, JD 4-wheel steer mower, original 1979 Yamaha moped, and some mountain bike stuff. I can fit a lot of stuff behind the Mini.
The Miata had to go to make room for the Mini. Still kind of miss it. :-(
