I know that I normally park out in the boonies when I go to a mall etc. Only to walk out and find a big 4X4 parked right next to me for no reason other then to compare how big they are, or maybe they ran out of gas

Could it be they were not part of the Sport Package in 08 and only available individually but added to the package in 09?


and if you notice in 2008 the sport package included the "sport suspension". 09s had xenons and white turn signals, but not the sport suspension.

From that angle, your MINI looks as big as the Hummer!

Here's Kooper. Over the next couple of weeks, the last of the chrome (door handles, gas cap, rear tail light surrounds and mini badges) will go away. I thought these came out pretty good though.

Thanks! This weekend will probably be the best in this area, but I'm going to be in Myrtle Beach

I'm sure you'll have a great time, but bring warm clothes, it's getting nippy here!
