Hey all! The wife and I picked up our first MINI on Friday. It's a 2011 PW MCC with #1, B top and a manual... I think I have all the acro's right. I absolutely love this thing! In 24 hrs we put over 200 miles on the odometer. After a few corners I figured out why this thing gets great gas mileage, because you never have to slow down for a turn! Well...slow down as much anyway. At first I was concerned about the lack of power, but I have found this car to be very engaging to drive and don't miss the power at all. My mornings and afternoons just got a whole lot more interesting as I commute on two-lane twisties. Anyway, a couple of photos:

After only 24 hrs:

Congrats on your new and first Mini! Looks very sharp! Glad you're really enjoying it and taking advantage of how fun it is.

Did you customize it or buy one at the dealer?

We were able to find one we liked at the dealer. I didn't want to go all out because I will be using it as a commuter and I expect to put a least 400 miles a week on it.
