Another Mini on the streets of CT!
Good morning fellow Mini owners!
I've been snooping around this forum since Saturday when my wife and I test drove (well, she drove) a 2007 Laser Blue MCS. I am very happy to announce that it came home last night. Amazingly, I got to drive part of the way home (okay, it's her car, but she shares) and holy toledo this baby is quick. I don't know how you folks have the patience to wait for your special orders, my wife was pacing relentlessly since Saturday. It has the brushed aluminum interior trim package which is pretty sharp, cold weather pkg, black leatherette seats, sunroof, and the convenience pkg, oh and she had the white sport stripes added, what do you think?
Cheers-
Rob

If she let's me near it, I'll snap some more photos. Of course, she already has me signed up for washing and waxing though! Thanks for the welcomes!

Welcome to the NAMily.

Don't worry about her not letting you near it. There's a reason soooo many NAMilies are 2-MINI (or more) households.

When you order your own, we'll be here to support you!

You have been assimilated.

Welcome all three of you to NAM. Sharp LB, nice to see a floor car adopted by a family.

More pictures when you get time. Nice set of options for driving those country roads in CT.
