Man, we really think alike. lol. Our Porsches have the same body kit, and I bought my wife a 2nd car when she's not using the SUV……a Mini Cooper convertible. Very fun and efficient car. And of course we had the mod bug right away. Tint, Bluetooth/Telephone stereo, rims, new headlights, oh and a complete paint job. (she didn't like the blue, so we repainted the whole thing pepper white).

I had an '04 model when they were new. Great fun and surprisingly functional. Check out Way Motor Works for some upgrades. They have packaged a nice mod group of intake, pulley and exhaust that works well.

Very nice! I recently sold my mini clubman S. I would highly recommend th Alta Access Port ECU tune. Completely transforms the car into a beastie

Let's see some pics! I just saw a cool commercial for the new Cooper coupe/roadster looking thing in the pre-reel for Mission:Impossible 4. That thing looks pretty sweet!

Congrats on your new ride.

she look huge compared to the 996...





I'm thinking of giving it an inch drop maybe...


I didn't replace the lower chrome grill yet cause I haven't got a clue how to remove it without taking the bumper off..
