Why was the car sold as is, was anything wrong with it? I know seller's do that to protect themselves, but a 2007 "AS IS" is weird - it has a warranty on it right!

I'm glad I have your support. The car is much less feminine than I expected. Pictures of MINI's make them overly round. Much better in real life.

Attached are some updated pictures since bringing Toby to NY. These pics were taken after a car wash in early December.
