RE: RE:
To be honest, it was due in large part because of the color... I loved the Red when I saw it in person, and I've never been as much of a fan of black (though my bro and dad are). I don't like as much how the body kit "blends in" on the black SS's. Since I plan on having this car for a long time, I didn't want any regrets!
Secondly, it was more expensive, but you do get the advantage of having less miles, but I don't drive many miles per year (and even less now that I have 2 cars!)
3rd - tires - since you have less miles, the tires won't need to be replaced for awhile, but I HATE the RSA's, But I'm replacing mine right away since my tread depth is low already (and so I figured why pay their "added value" for the newer tires).
Anywho, after all of this, you're car is still Awesome, and like I said, I would have bought it if they didn't accept my deal. I just think this a cool coincidence! Congrats to us! haha
Are you going to be taking yours on the road before winter ends? I can't wait for some better weather so I can get mine on the road!!!

RE: RE:
Cort, AKA Knightfan, organized the meets last summer. Not sure if he is this summer. I know he has his plate full, but I'm sure a little begging and prodding, and he'll do it, Right Cort? PLEASE?

Thank you. Why are you trying to get rid of your Mini S? Those are pretty neat lil cars. Good look with the sale and finding your 04!
