:lol::lol::lol::lol:

The Lexus front end still looks better than any MINI. Also the best thing is you never have top open the hood because the motor is rock solid just the 8 speed trans. Japan is much better motor builders than Germany. It's her car and it's like riding on a super plush couch with 300 hp.

 

I jinxed the weather by putting on the summer wheels and tires. Too little winter means more bugs and allergens in the summer.

 

David.0 in his younger days...

 

VERY, VERY nice ride Dave. Tell your wife to drive it in the best of health. BUT, the front end is still BUTT ugly :frown2:

 

Than ANY MINI? No, no it doesn't. And its a lethargic 300hp(295), she's a heavy gurl for the size. Those 350's are the ugliest Lexus' out right now though they do look better than previous model years-those things were gawd awful. They resemble their less esspensive ugly cousins in the Yota stable.
The build quality and reliability, now there's where Lexus has basically every manufacturer by the nuts except maybe Volvo.

 

Sorry but I can not accept any opinions on looks from anyone driving a second or third gen MINI. :lol::lol:

Every Lexus has the same front end now even the LFA. Haters going to hate.

 

Just washed the crud off of the Justa. Once the good weather really starts, I'm going have to re-do DaveO's magic potion on the black trim. Lasted about a year.

 

Good thing it wasn't an opinion. :cornut:

 

Gave my MINI a good under car spray to get the sand and salt out of the wheel wells and undercarriage.

It was pouring rain so the neighbors thought I was kind of crazy.

...and Dave.o ,my MINI's R53 front end looks way better than any Lexus front end I've ever seen.

 

I'll just leave this right here....

Took advantage of the low 80° temperatures to wash and wax the car.
papa-j: I agree about washing all the crud off. Even if it's not faster, it sure will look that way.

nothing today yet but last night I took a friend for a ride in it and she was surprised by it

 

I've done this. It works well.

 

Ordered her a replacement wheel for the one that was damaged by a pothole and allegedly changed by a body shop last year. With tax- $300, but totally worth it considering nobody can give you any sort of guarantee on a refurbished/used wheel. That's if they can even find one. Why are MINI dealership parts guys such dicks?! If a dealership across town has it for $284 wth wont you meet that price? Whatever. I've noticed that BMW and MINI parts guys are just ***holes.

 

You are shopping the wrong dealership my friend. eMINIparts.com, great folks to deal with & very nice folks to boot. Forgot to mention they are a forum sponsor too. Buy from the folks who help keep the lights on here at M/A.

 

Walked by mine, again. At 60+ degrees outside in February it is walking weather.

 

Drove mine to go pick up lunch at the market.....At 60+ degrees outside in February it is driving the MINI with the windows down and the tunes up weather....

 

So that was the Polka Music I heard blaring...

 

Yup.... I do that to grind down the hipsters in the area....

It messes with them.... Sometimes I play Lawrence Welk accordion music as well...
