Well, doesn't look like anyone else is here yet so I'll pop this forum's cherry and introduce myself.

I'm Ken, just out of the military and about to go back to school at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale in Southern IL.

I have a 2006 MINI Cooper S that's space blue with a body color roof.
It's lightly modded with a 15% pulley, DDM intake, one-ball exhaust, M7 5th Anniversery STB, M7 USS, BBS LM wheels with body color center sections and 215/40R17 Riken Raptor tires. I've done a few cosmetic and interior tweaks as well.
I'm on other MINI sites but not too terribly active, including NAM, M/U and I frequent the chatroom over at Motoringfun.com
