Something.

Lurking is fun. It's stealthy

Hey, I lurked for two whole solid months before I posted anything.
And then in April of 03 all heck broke loose. Oh well.
I had to practice my typing.

Lurking is fine. If you don't find what you're "lurking for" then drop us a line and we will get you the best "MINI biased" answer in North America.

"MINI biased"- Does that = MINI BS???

Its good to post and ask Q's. I have learned alot here that helped me in my decision to buy my 05 MCS. I also like to put my 2 cents in. The part thats not fun about this is I think about how long it will be to get my 05 MCS. My accord just aint fun 2 drive.

I think that's a speaker vent for when they eventually have cellphone hook up capacity.


OK, HC, why do those voices in my head keep tormenting me?

On the thread listing page, there is a menu button at the top right hand side called "Forum Tools". Click on it and you'll see a link called "Post a New Thread". Hope this helps.

Very nice looking MCS, one of my favorites in CR/B but yours looks great. Love the bonett stripes and driving lights. Hope you know how to wash and wax it.
