Very nice and congrats. That's one of the few cars that the wife has considered trading for.

Congrats, Zoomie!

I'm glad to see that you went back to RWD, as a true sporty car should be.

So you joined the Beemer Bitch crowd. Make sure to drive like an asshole and like it's a Ferrari.

Just kidding, but not really. Always liked the beemers. It's cool that they keep using the two round grilles.

I personally like the car...size, power, 2 door. Unfortunately, it came in 9th out of 10th in a Car and Driver segment test......so I'll pass. lol

That was the 2010 model - this one has more than a few changes. Gone to a double clutch, upgraded suspension and seven speed. I opted for the M-package as well that gives a little uuumph. I'm VERY happy with the car. We had it at the track yesterday and on my first lap I turned my "fast" time in the Mini

We're changing out tires on Tuesday, the run-flats are a blast to slide around though!!
