    Hmm.....not necessarily true :idea: Really depends on who and how the mods were done. Have seen people bring in modded used cars to the shop and were pretty much hacked up :eek6: You really need to know who/what shop, did the mods and what parts they have used :Thumbsup:

    She's kinda funny that way - she's fine with the car completely stock. She won't even put the auto into sport mode or use the paddle shifters!

    I know what you mean, my wife is completely happy with her "Justa Coupe" until she sees someone else's MINI and then she wants to know why her's doesn't look like that! Drives me nuts.

    Very nice MINI, but tell your wife I like her's too. Having a two MINI family is great! I'm lucky my wife doesn't want her's modded at all. She justa wants it nice & cleean with a full tank of 93 octane.

    Hope to see you at the donut munch. :donut1:
