So you say you got rid of the RS4 huh, you just got that a little while ago.
What happened ? Did you replace each car with something else or just freed up some parking.
Hi Bajo,

Yes, I had it for about 3 months. The car had a minor electrical problem. I sent it in to the dealer and it came back with another. It happened several times over and then I went to another dealer. Same story, end of the day I don't think they have competent people to work on cars such as these. So the timing was right and I got a great price on the car, so why not

Thank you! Look much better than stock. Are those the stock rear calipers though?

Great looking Mini Arling. How good are the Brembo brakes compared to stock?

Haha, yeah spending a measly $20k on a car will make you feel like that
Smoking a Mini with a 997 is a bit overkill, but head out on the twisties and it'll be a bit more fun.

Sick MCS!!! Love the aggressive exterior.

BTW I am a huge fan of T-Ride as well. I will hopefully be heading out there in March.

Hey, I think I saw those photos over at Nam, Nice to have another Mini owner here. Your car is stunning. Sometimes I regret not getting a black or gray one, so many more possibilities when it comes to exterior and interior mods.
