Hey kiddies! We are getting ready to embark on MTTS (MINI Takes The States)on Monday. We will be participating in Leg 8 of the Coast-to-Coast Fandango! I am very excited about this and glad to see MINI participating in something like this. When you buy a car you don't expect to become part of a community, but when you buy a MINI it is a completely different experience. And oh yeah, speaking of community, I was asked to become part of the Steering Committee for AtlantaMINIS
I promise to update with pictures after Tuesday when we get back from Nashville.

Ecco il video della nuova Mini Cooper S con motore sovralimentato da 175cv. Benedetto sia il turbo Twin-Scroll:)

Il secondo video si sofferma sui nuovi interni, con il grande Center Speedo rivisitato.

Dopo la presentazione alla stampa della Mini Cooper versione 2007, sono disponibili alcuni video. Eccone due riguardanti la Mini Cooper, nel classico bicolore rosso-bianco.

So I am very much in love with Beulah right now. They are a band (of which I pronounce their name kinda like beluga -whales- but without the g?) and they were on one of the O.C. mixes. I love all of their stuff right now especially "Popular Mechanics for Lovers" (from the O.C.) and "If We Can Land a Man on the Moon, then Surely I Can Win Your Heart". Check them out! They're really great!

Also, I am in love with ebay! I bought my first thing off of ebay a couple weeks ago and it arrived in the mail and it took only a week for the shipping and and and...

Here it is!

Yes!!! It's a Paul Frank watch with a pink black and white Union Jack on it! It will totally match my MINI, Stella, when her decals are done! (Of which I also hope to be inquiring about soon!)

This weekend there are two SOMC meets that I am going to since I, very sadly, had to miss the New York one... But I'll be off to Hamilton and Mississauga on Saturday. As well, I'm really excited because after that I'll be going out with Jean-Louis for a bit. Yay! I haven't seen him in ages!

Anyways, off to work!
