New Mini in the works

Hi all of NAM. I've been looking for a new car to replace my Saab with 152k (that's currently not running) for quite a while now and now finally the new car is shipping hopefully next week. 2009 red JCW with the Hyper Sport body package shipping from a small dealer in Mississippi. I drove a JCW down in Milwaukee last fall and couldn't believe how it performed. Hopefully it should ship around Monday and get here by the end of next week. Very excited to join the Mini community and hopefully the car is everything I hope it is. Some pictures of the car from the dealer are below.

Congrats on your new-to-you MINI, and welcome to NAM! Your MINI looks great -- love the body-color trim. It's a sharp look, and a really nice looking car overall.

I'm sure you'll be happy when she arrives...enjoy her in good health!

It comes with about 29k, so it's pretty low for being 5 years old.

Thanks ECS for making the picture bigger, still new to the site so trying to figure it all out. This angle I think is still by far my favorite. Day of delivery can't come soon enough

Welcome. Looks like you got the hang of it. Waiting is the hardest part but very exciting.

All we're waiting on now is for a trucker to take the bid for transporting the car. Fingers crossed it happens soon

Hope it arrives safe and sound. Give a very good look over after it comes off the truck and if you need anything part wise, let me know. Congrats again and enjoy your New MINI.
