Just Saying Hello-My 1st Post

Hello All, I am newer MINI owner. I have been on this site before checking local MINI events but have not posted anything so this is my first. I picked-up a 2007 Astro Black MCS coupe with about 3 thousand miles- after test driving, I didn't want to wait 3 months. I've owned Porsche 911s before and would say the MINIs are a similar acceleration and handling experience at a fraction of the cost (and they have a back seat). I call him Grady, after Fred Sanford's best friend in the TV show. I look forward to more posts in the future. Already this site has helped me with recognizing and replacing my warped hood scoop. (the dealer took care of this) I have seen a lot of involvement with other color clubs like the "chili red" and the "pepper White" but I haven't seen anything for the Astro Black club. Is there one out there? I realize the Astro black is not a favorite because of the black really being a dark blue....but I love it! Good to be part of the community!

Welcome to the wonderful world of MINIs!

And I'm sure there's an astro black club out there for you. But since BRG is the best color (and fastest), I can't help you find it....
