I just bought my 2005 Mini Cooper S in Purple Haze Metallic and couldn't be more happy about it. I wouldn't take anything less than a Cooper S as my first car. It took me about a month to track down but it was worth it. Looking forward to all of the benefits of this forum.

 

Welcome to the MINI madness as some would say.
First - details? options?
Second - look up the Official Purple Haze owers club here on NAM and join it.
Third - go out and have fun...find some other MINIs to join up with.

Where in NY?
