The new ride


Can you picture Max, Charlie, and me cruising the weinstrasse in this? So could we! Friday, I managed to talk Max out of buying the dreaded station wagon in favor of the Mini.

is that the exact model that you got? the convertible? that's so awesome! i'm so jealous. i see those all over south beach and i've wanted to get a mini ever since they came out. they're small but since you two don't need the back seat (YET) they're amazingly practical. minis are one of the best small cars around.

(i'm not gay.)

Monica- Max says it hs amazing handling and he feels like he's rising a larger car.

Dan- It is the exact model we bought except the seats are black leather. We had looked at a hard top--black with back and white checkered accents. It was soooooo cute. But Max fell in love with e convertible.

Jay- HAHAHAHA One child seat and Charlie is MORE than enough!!!!!!

Kenju- 27 city 35 hwy

C loves those cars and has been trying to talk me into getting one. I'm not sure I can imagine going from a Jeep Grand Cherokee to a Mini, but the convertible sure is cute. It's on my radar anyway!

LUCKY!!! I've wanted one of those for a long time. Ah well...I'll just live vicariously though you, as I'm now officially a "grown-up" and am in the process of selling my VW Beetle for a sedan. ;o)

Now you're living my dream. So tell me, is an S model?

I have wanted a Mini or a Smartcar for ages but I'm now realizing that by living in Upstate NY, that I have relinquished all rights to have a car without four wheel drive. So enjoy that car. It's a beauty.

Dammit, none of my comments are saving. Ugh, we parted ways with beloved MINI after 3+ years owning it. Such a pisser I tell you.
