Hello everyone! :D

I'm new to the world of Minis.  I order my first 6/29/07 and it's due mid August.  :)  We order the '07 MCS Chili Red, 6 speed, w/white roof~mirrors~bonnet stripes, Prem & Sport Pkgs w/17" Web Spoke rims, Chrome Line Interior, Hi-Fi, Rooster Red color line, driving Ralley lights, rear light white out package.  Did I do good?

Now I'm in the waiting game.  :(  It entered production  07/07/07...set for completion 07/15/07. :)   When I called today I was told it was in the paint shop.  The paint shop and Friday the 13th don't  :( sound promising, huh?  Well since it started it's journey on Saturday 07/07/07 lets hope that good luck cancels out bad luck. :!:  :!:  :!:

My husband and I met a few local, and a few not so local, Mini & MINI owners during the World Record attempt gathering at the Sportsplex.  :P  We were in the  Red w/white stripes 2007 Shelby Cobra GT500.  002  We didn't stand out because of the car, but because we were one of the few odd cars other than the Mini around.  We thought it would be an excellent chance to scope out some different options on cars and see what everyone has done with their own touches.  What fun we had and even got a few ideas. :D

We can't wait to do something with all the area Mini owners.  :D  I did catch that there is a car show Sunday from 2-4.  We may try to stop by that, but not in a Mini.  :(  Sorry, you'll have to deal with us in the GT500 I do believe until the Mini arrives.  :?  We're with you in spirit until then.  Besides I'm sure some gear heads will have something in common with my hubby and his car.  I'm sure they will be advising him as to how I can get more HP and torque out of it with pulleys, cool air kits, etc.  Let me stop that.  :twisted:  It cost way too much money when we've already traveled that road in the past year.  :!:  Not to mention we kissed the warranty bye-bye. :cry:

Oh, and I'm a waver. :D   This seems to be an issue with some.  Heck, I'm waving at Minis now from the F150 and the GT500.  :lol:  I'm getting some weird looks, but I'm having fun at it.

WE look very forward to sharing some very special Mini moments with you all. :D

Fun times ahead :!:

Aww...what a great first post!  I'm really glad you took the time to do so.

We hope you'll find our quirky little group a lot of fun, and I can't WAIT to see that Mustang.  Looking forward to meeting you both.

Hi all.  

I don't have a mini yet, but I am so excited and can't wait to get one!  At the moment I drive a Cobalt SS/SC, but I have to wait to buy my mini until I figure out what is going on with my orders in the Air Force.  I don't want to buy one if I am going overseas.  I definately would like to come out and meet everyone... so I can drool over your Mini's!!!  
I test drove the 07 a couple times and absolutely love it.  Hopefully, 08's bring a new color and a chrono package (I can dream).
I think I want an Astro Black Mini... after seeing it in person I really liked it.  I also like laser blue, but I've noticed a couple around the area.
Generally, I go to Jenros on Saturday afternoon and Bass Pro Saturday nights, so maybe I'll see some of you out.  I'll definately come say hello!

Hi All!

My hubby and I have been a member of the boards for a while; but, just started getting into being MINI owners.  :D If you see some posts that look like split personalities, well, it's because we are sharing the account. hehehe (The MINI, not as much).  

We attended our first MINI function at the World Record attempt and had a blast!  Hope to see some of you guys on the ferry run coming up!  Thanks for getting a group together, it sure makes owning a MINI even more fun.  

Take care!
