A quick hello from Charlotte, NC. I've had my mini about a month and don't know how I've ever driven anything else.
Welcome to MA. Great bunch of helpful folks over here. By the way, you should check out Tar Heel MINIs. Fun, very active club down your way. I try to make several of their events each year. Their Blue Ridge Parkway Tour is awesome. Visit them at Tar Heel MINI Motoring Club - You're going to have FUN now! - Welcome to Tar Heel MINI Motoring Club
