what a cool mini! Congratulations!

I had no idea these were close to $40K... guess the failing dollar is really failing...

If I were going to buy a mini -- it would be this one:

no affiliation -- although I have seen this in person and this mini rocks...

Funny you say that car! I have driven it, HARD, its' a great fast car! He has had a very hard time selling it, so it's slowing loosing all the mods! It had a full cage, & some other goodies on it.

It's real fast & fun, got a lot of torque steer, what I didn't like about it, was, when you go to shift, it holds revs for a few seconds, totally weird, & hard to get a smooth shift.

yeah... while I have not diven it... I saw it when it was at full mod with the custom rear cage which allowed just enough room for a set of track wheels/tires...

I never drove it though... just saw the track pack, bbk, and power mods and started to think that my wife needed a mini

I love the look of your new one!

I have never driven one... they must be great!

Cable, I may be getting one soon so maybe I'll hit you up on that.

I believe that this MINI is for the "woman."

That's twisting my words abit but, reading between the lines too.....

Don't be surprised when a new Mini deaship opens on Lake City Dr. in Seattle next year around May-June. I may be building a new facility, significant TI, for the owner if all goes and we final the contract......but I don't know and anything and you didn't hear that from me.
