Shift to first gear.
Hello Everyone,

Here's my 2005 Hyper Blue MCS. Ordered from the fine folks at South Bay MINI in Torrance, SoCal. Happy motoring!

Nice one! You got the lowering springs? It looks lower than regular one.

Very nice! Great photos which are making me miss summer as it begins to get just a little bit chilly here on some mornings!

Welcome to NAM!

Very nice photo eVal! Yes, almost twins, indeed! M7 springs installed. Ride quality and handling both improved noticeably. No rubbing issues with 215/40/17 Goodyear F1 GSD3s.

Thanks! I was torn between Hyper Blue/White and Dark Silver/White, but now I love the HB/W.:smile:

I have one on order too from South Bay. How long did it take from placing your order until you got a production number?

I ordered my car back in May and took delivery the first week of July. I think I got a production number around two weeks after ordering. Congrats on your order!
