New R56 Owner. Hello.

So I have had many cars in my life. Usually get the itch to change every two years or so. I'm 32 and have had 8 cars and 3 motorcycles so far. It's been fun and expensive. Sigh.

My car history:

1984 Honda Prelude (bought from a tow yard. No radio or power steering.)
1991 Saturn SC (no reverse gear :p )
2001 Honda Civic Si
2001 Subaru 2.5 RS (JDM Turbo engine swap and lots of carbon. Miss that car :( )
2002 Lexus GS300
2008 Honda Ridgeline
2011 Volkswagen Golf. I'd still have it if this hadn't happened...

Going through an intersection, I had the green light and an SUV decided they could make a left turn through me. Can't fault the little Golf at all. It took all the impact and I was fine.

But NOW...I have one of my obtainable dream cars. A new-to-me 2011 Mini Cooper S!

Couldn't be happier and can't wait to start modding it. I work at MADNESS Autoworks and one of the cars we specialize in is MINI :D I plan to start my build thread soon.

Stay tuned (pun intended).
