Hi everyone! My name is Paul and I'm a new member here from Downers Grove, IL (West of Chicago). I'm currently driving an 08 VW R32 (until Monday) when I'm going to be taking a delivery of a brand new Midnight Black Metallic 2013 Mini Coupe S. I'm very excited and already ordered a bunch of goodies for it. While this is my first brand new MINI, I'm not new to their world. About two years ago, I purchased an 07 MCS with 20k miles in Lightning Blue Metallic. The car was a blast to drive, and it was fully loaded 6MT car, minus the nav. Unfortunately, it got rear ended and I've decided to trade in it. Being a BMW guy, I couldn't swallow the numb steering in the VW. That had to go as well. Throughout the entire year I've owned the R32, I couldn't stop thinking about driving the MINI again, so I've finally decided to pull the trigger on a Coupe. My MCS is a Midnight Blue Metallic with Black Leather, 6MT, ZSP, ZPP, ZCW, and Convenience. It's got few more things that I can't remember off the top of my head. I kinda regret I didn't get nav, but I don't think it's necessary and it would mean a custom order and 6 weeks wait time:cryin: Included are the pictures of my old Cooper. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you in the near future! :biggrin5:
At last!! =] (Car got delayed like crazy) Getting prepped: Finally at home: Actual quality pictures will follow tomorrow. I already racked 60 miles on it (30 from the dealer). It is so much better than my old R32! Even my mom likes it who's very picky about cars.
