Well if you can afford a Viper you shouldn't have to worry about maintenance costs on a MINI  giggle

Luckily I didn't have to drive but around 3 miles & I didn't see any fuzz ggrin

Getting the car into 4th gear was a bitch too cause the box was in the 4th gear position  hit head

Yea!...siggy works and so does avatar. 
I love the vanity in the front seat.  Jason would absolutely lose his shit if I tried something like that, but now that I know it's possible I have a quite a few "large" things that I can add to the honey-do list and  I won't have to wait on him to go get them in the truck.

Yeah I have heard about the electric MINI but as usual CA gets them & we don't.  CA got the hydrogen-powered BMWs too  angry yak

From my reading it also doesn't sound like MINI has any plans for mass producing the electric version  lip quiver  If they could get the price down a bit I would be all over an electric MINI.  It would be perfect for me as work is only 20 mile round trip.  Hell if anybody would come out with a decent electric car for a good price I would be all over it to use as a daily driver & keep the miles off my MINI by only driving it for fun & on the weekends  nod yes

I am smart  neener  I love it here.  Would love it more if we had no winter but even in CA it gets rainy & cold even though people act like it's year round bliss & present company excluded of course, but y'all have some freaks out there that rival & possibly even surpass our rednecks  giggle  The only place I would move to is the panhandle of Florida  ;b  or maybe Hawaii  cabbage patch

One of my local MINI friends posted his video of this year's parade at the "MINIS on the Dragon" 2009.  I didn't get to go this year because work sux & I am poor  lip quiver but this is what it's like up there.  It is like entering the MINI twilight zone  crazy  In normal, every day life you see the occasional MINI but on this trip it's MINIs everywhere & you see the occasional "car"  cookie
