Seems like every time I look down at the speedo in the Mini, it reads 80 or 90 mph...it's hard to believe it's not reading wrong because it gets there so effortlessly...this thing is completely worlds apart from the base Mini Cooper I test drove when it was first released in the U.S. With the redesign in 2014 they totally transformed this car in all the right ways. :-)

It's not exactly a rocket ship, but it will easily run the quarter mile in the high thirteens-
When did high 13s become slow? At 38 I must be getting old

Funny that the G11 (what happened to F?) weighs barely more than my E, although being a diesel 4Matic, it is the heaviest configuration possible,

Some pro drag cars still prefer bias ply tires.

Lexus has a similar combination of White with Flaxen (Flaxen is a saddle as well).

Awesome. Congrats. I love the color combo. My "new" to me 535D this year is the same color. The interior color sold it for me. No more all black interiors for me.
We live on a dirt road in northern Vermont. My cars are always dirty, but at least in "dust" season (as opposed to "mud" season) the white shows the least dirt!

Finally got her to give me a potential location .... where it came from I'll never know.
Savannah, GA
Now, to figure out how to make it a reality.

I've been there once, on business - taught a class to employees who worked for the city. Beautiful place.
Scoped out some home prices, just for fun. Can find a 2000-2500 square foot ranch plan for around $250K. Our 2700 sq ft ranch with finished basement cost us $360K a year ago, and we've probably put $60K into improvements since then.
My job is entirely portable - it's the wife who has to find employment.
My mom is from Tennessee, and though she's lived in CA since she was 9, she will lapse into a drawl from time to time.

Just didn't feel like driving the van around this season if I didn't need to, when I have a perfectly good AWD sport sedan available.
Overall was very impressed on how the BMW got around last night and today.

I actually want a little snow, we have it so rarely up here.

A friend of mine who moved to GA and ran back home after a few years said Savannah was one of the few places there where he'd want to live. I was just there last month and have been there a couple times before, I suspect it is more pleasant than many areas in the region.
Nothing wrong with that, but the humidity would be a real shock to some people.

Surprisingly, the wife was concerned that the AC would run year round.

Compared to the bugs, humidity, crowds, summer weather and other features of the states that don't have real winter, I'll take the snow and cold. California generally has an excellent climate, but you'd have to pay me a fortune to live there, given all else that comes along with it.
