Dark Silver and Liquid Yellow Mini's at Lunch - Photoshoot

Well, I got the MINI Cooper S (Supercharged, BABY!) and am incredibly pleased. Had a nice run with another MINI at luch that my pal David drives. He took some shots if you want to see more...

David's Mini is the 2002 Yellow one. Mine is the new Dark Silver for 2004.

Gosh they are fun. Supercharged Go Kart with a stereo, huge moonroof and A/C anyone? What a performance driver's car. If I can only get through the break in period.

Just gotta get the dealer to take care of a few things like Bonnet Stripes and my rear seat being loose.

Thanks to David for the pics and the good times.

Very nice! Congrats and I hope you enjoy. Good to have another MINI driver in the fold.

The break-in period is killing me.

The car is so rock solid from a performance standpoint. Could do with a bit more fit and finish but that's not why I bought it.

How are the new mods on the Blue Mini? I would love a short shifter. I saw on MINI Mania that they have a new short shifter [1]. I might be able to afford that one.

Thanks for posting.
