Great to hear.
Our Mini is officially "en route" to the US now. I really like how you can follow the progress of the car online. I can't believe Porsche doesn't do it.

Have both as well. Mini S (coupe) is my DD. Let's not kid ourselves. TT is infinitely more fun to drive. But the little Bimmer is a fun bugger. Just make sure to get a 6 speed!

Mini should be here in 2 weeks. Just in time to not be able to enjoy its convertible top.

Think positive Dave! All you need is one or two sunny days in the fall, top down, heated seats on, leather jackets-

Great fun!

We picked up the car this afternoon from Mini of Peabody. My wife Irene is very excited as am I. The Laser Blue is really beautiful. Everything in the car seems to be fine despite the JD Power bad quality rating!!!!!!!
There was no light left for pics so I snapped the pic below as she pulled her new baby into the garage for the first time. Yes,....the Cayenne be sleepin' outside tonight.
The black wheels that we opted for are very cool.
I haven't driven it yet. Sunday is supposed to be back over 60 and sunny here so we may do a little convertible down action.
One thing that I thought was really very "Mini" is that there are different colors that you can select for the inside ambiance lighting. Naturally we selected blue.

Congrats on the new addition, those wheels do look great! Good luck getting your wife to vacate the drivers seat....... my wife has to be surgically removed from it for me to get a drive - fantastic little cars.
