Another Houston Newbie

Picked up my '05 R53 a few weeks ago.



Since it's strictly a sunny week-end drive, I've not spent a lot of time in the driver's seat yet. Not sure on mods other than 17" wheels and tires. I did snag a custom Texas plate, even though the standards have yet to arrive.

It looks like an old man's car and I'm an old man, sooooo ...

I'm a Houstonian living in far West Texas at this moment. I'm from the West University/Bellaire area and I will be there next week for vacation but not long enough to motor with the groups. I did a couple of fun runs with the people from that link and I made a meeting with the Houston MINI Motoring Society(hmms.org).

Katy is actually one of the places I'm looking at possibly getting an apt soon.
