    Picked up our MINI the other day. For reasons you understand, I am just now posting. Is it any wonder people love their MINI's? We will do a break-in run to San Francisco via the coast, then I will see which mods hold my interest. It's great to be aboard......

    I posted pictures in an album. Must have missed something as they seem not to be available via the gallery link. I'll have to search some "how to" posts and figure this thing out. I did try, however, to give you guys some pictures....

    Congrats on picking up your new MINI, and welcome!!
    The first few mods i did to my car were to improve functionality or comfort...I waited to do my "performance" Mods till my "free Maintenance" (but not my warranty) was over!!
    I kind of wish I had done more performance mods sooner...but the time let me do more research, and let me save the $$ to do most of my performance mods in quick succession!!

    Thanks for everyone's response. Here's the deal about the name...How does a Munchkin get to OZ? He/she follows the Yellow Brick Road! That is where we want to be with the MINI, running the Yellow Brick Road to OZ...

    OK, the name may change at some point, but the vanity plate application is requesting "A HOOT" and that's a keeper if we get it. Again, it's good to be aboard...

    I posted a response to everyone, but obviously not....First, thanks for all the responses. And about that name; How do Munchkin's get to OZ? They follow the Yellow Brick Road! That's our intent with our MINI, to follow the Yellow Brick Road, FAST....
