Picked up my new 07 S tonight!!! Yippeeeee!

Hey gang:
Just wanted to say I picked up my baby tonight. 07 S pepper white with black roof. Cold, weather pkg, premium pkg, 17 inch crown spokes. This thing wants to be driven hard! It's been a few years since I owned a manual so I kept her in check. Pics will be forthcoming. The entire purchase and all went really smoothly, couldn't have asked for anything better. Oh yes I could, I could have gotten the car as a gift and never have to make a payment. lol! Oh well, again, all waiting on an 07 should be very happy!

Contratulations! PW/B is an awesome color and I'm sure you'll remain very proud.

Post after a couple weeks and let us know what you think, your new discoveries.

Great color combo, if the wife liked pepper white I would have very likely considered that. I'm happy for you.

Pics are coming guys, I promise. I have my digital camera sitting next to me as i type. Since the car is a British car and my middle name is Sean, after Sean Connery, I'm thinking of naming her a female Bond name, "***** Galore?". (I don't think the wife will appreciate that one) "Moneypenny" is the running favorite. (she costs me money every month, but will hopefullu be as reliable and stalwarth as the character)

Bad Yarvis... Bad Yarvis! You're not sharing with your NAM brothers & sisters!

Where are the pics of your new baby?

Also, your new MINI has no name?

Gotta name that child you know!

Congratulations and welcome to the '07 gang! Motor On!

Guys, here are some pics, I hope they come through. First impressions so far. The car handles like a dream! Sport mode MUST be pressed and engaged to appreciate. Otherwise I'm not as excited. Bonnet fit on the passenger side is not right and will be my first issue of concern when I go back to pick up my racing stripes and mats next week or so. I also settled on a name, "M". Since the new "M" is a woman and the Mini is as well, it's only fitting. M= Mini, get it?
