After a long seven days of trying to keep it a secret from family and friends, I finally got to pick my MINI up. It was well worth the wait and the two hour drive there. My experience with the dealership was fantastic! And the MINI!!! WOW!! It was the first time I actually got to take mine out... the JCW is so worth it! Sixth gear doing 120km/h and went up to 180km/h with such ease. I even got some long looks or nods from other drivers, but only saw two MINI's on the way home, both unable to see me though

I was looking forward to waving at other drivers, but there will be plenty of time for that

Happy driving!!!

Congrats!!

I'd love to see some pictures when you get around to it.

I'll be taking pictures as soon as it gets sunny out... hopefully soon....

Congrats...looking forward to those pics. Did you get the cold weather package? I'm curious because I want to know what another northerner thinks of the MINI heated seats?

No Winter package in the car. It was the JCW demo from MINI Canada, means great car, better price!.

Attached is a pic of the car that the dealership took.

BTW: I guess you would call me the Co-Driver, or just the passenger of this car.

Nice car.

Nice wheels.

Nice flames.

I didn't get heated seats, but when taking out one that had them... they were nice and toasty within minutes!!! I would recommend getting them!!

Great Car Great Colour!!

TMini · Mar 5th, 2004, 03:56 AM

Whoa...that is one mack daddy sweet ride. Are the flames decals or paint?

cdn jcw · Mar 5th, 2004, 12:54 PM

They are decals, but in the future (distant future) the plan is to actually get them airbrushed on

Once it gets sunny out, I'll grab pictures... my poor baby is out in the rain

hehe
