We're buying a Mini S Convertible
My wife's dad passed away this week so what better way to start the healing process than to get a new motor toy. aka Retail Therapy.
I had suggested some time ago to my wife that she might like a Mini. So, we went and test drove a Mini Convertible S and she loved it. I have to say it is a coooool little car. We went back to the dealer today and after looking at the cars on the lot and en route, we decided to spec a 2010.
The Mini on line configurator is significantly better than the Porsche one. I find that very amusing. Irene likes the Lazer Blue color. Yes, we both like those damn bright colors. We ordered the sport, convenience, cold weather and premium packages. The car will look just like the one shown below. I have to say that I am excited too even though it is not a p-car. Considering that this loaded car is less than 33K, I am even more excited!!!
I understand that a Harmon Kardon stereo is coming in with the '10 cars so hopefully that will be nice.
I also just bought a used Featherlite trailer for taking my 986 to DEs. This winter I might fully convert the 986 to a Spec Boxster which will take it out of our streetable car pool. So,....when I'm at DE now with the Cayenne pulling the 986, Irene can drive the Mini instead of my 997TT he he he he.

Thanks. Yes, good therapy!
Thanks Mo.
Glad to hear! I really enjoyed my wife's test drive even though I was smashed in the back seat (my choice).
