finally got one!

well i finally got my hands on a cooper S after drooling over them for quite some time! i picked up a nicely optioned 2007 with only 15000 miles on it for 18k! i thought it was a steal! its laserblue/black

ive owned many fun cars over the years.... 2 20th anniv. gtis, ap2 s2000, mkv r32..... and this car ranks up there with the best of them on driving experience and fun factor. plus the cult like following is addictive!

pics to follow soon......
