New to World
 

The Mini world is just a hidden Gem when it comes to economy & enthusiastic driving experiences, there really is nothing in the same league at any price, maybe the Atom or the CrossBow, but they are not true street machines, and cost a bunch more.

Just getting started learning what's good and how to increase the fun factor without durability issues, extended warranty is a good thing.

I have a 2009 JCW MY Nav/ and a few packages love it!!!
The wifey now has 2009 MCS All Black w/ Nav and similar packages, we are both enjoying these awesome cars...

Welcome to the club and you're right, they are a hidden surprise.
