Nice! That's a sweet pic of that Mini. Not girly at all! (Will have to show the wife that pic).

You only get 20 mpg? Why....leadfoot, lots of performance mods, or both?

Definitely both.[8D] But even on the highway I can't get 30mpg. If gas milage is a concern to you go for an 07.

Pulley, intake, exhaust, tune, poly engine mounts, oil catch can, big brake kit, springs, shocks, sway bars, poly suspension bushings, wheels and some cosmetic things.

Nice. I've done some of those things to my current car (but not nearly all).

What's involved in a "tune"? ECU flash/reprogram of sorts?
