New (and happy!) Mini owner in California
Hi everyone!
I just bought my new 2013 Chili red & white MCS not long ago. I've wanted a Mini for years, and I have to admit that this is the first car I've ever owned that I absolutely love. If my Mini could fit comfortably into my arms (and I wasn't afraid of getting smudges all over it), I would probably hug it on a daily basis.
I have two small children and previously drove a Honda Odyssey, but found that I was mostly driving it by myself, which seemed to defeat the purpose of having a people hauler. And my kids love the Mini too! In fact, my 3 year old has taken to yelling, "THAT'S not our car, we have a MINI COOPER!!" as we walk past other cars in parking lots.![Thumbs Up](https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb-up.gif)
Thanks for reading! I'm looking forward to learning from all of you.![Smilie](https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Welcome to NAM, Stefanie and thanks for the great MINI story. Congrats on your new Chili Red & White MCS. It's funny how MINI owners just love their MINIs. I love mine and glad you love your too. Post a few pics when you get a chance. We'd love to see it in all its glory. Happy motoring and please don't forget to promote the MINI wave.

Thank you! How cute! I bet your daughter is adorable as she checks everything out around her now that she's forward facing. I completely remember my kids when we turned their car seats around - so fun!
