from the sublime to the utilitarian...
here's an STX mini. 15x7 wheels, dunlops, h&r coil overs (thanks Turners!) all corner weighted and cambered and such... it's a plain green wrapper but will exceed 1g all day on dry pavement without any tire noise or drama at all...

not drop dead gorgeous like most of these pretty cars though!

[snap son! i'm 4th gear suddenly... i better get a job soon!!!]

Thanks again for the kind words!
By FAR the BADDEST, most tasteful pepper white MINI or MINI convertible I have ever seen. If the outside looks like this, what does the inside look like?

I have done nothing to the interior of the car but I have done plenty under the hood
I am throwing in a new intake tonight or tomorrow (Depending on when it comes). I'll post some pics up of the OLE engine bay, I'm pretty proud of the way its come together

Thank you for the compliments! I appreciate them and I'm glad you like the car!
