Email rfath@mac.com if you are interested. The car is located in eastern Massachusetts.

Asking $13,500.

Just over 63,000 miles, still under MINI CPO warranty until April 13, 2012.

Purchased certified pre-owned in fall 2009. This is my second R53. I spent a lot of time perfecting my 2003 MCS and prepped its 2006 replacement the same way. Nice balance between daily driver and track car.

Stock, this car comes with the sport package, winter package (heated seats, heated wiper fluid dispensers), leather seats, sunroof, multi-function steering wheel, and anthracite interior.

I have added:
Engine:
- Alta 15% reduced diameter supercharger pulley
- Alta cold air intake
- High performance spark plugs (Denso Iridium) - replaced less than 6 months ago
- Nology ignition wires
- Strut tower reinforcement plates

Suspension:
- Koni yellow adjustable shocks (lifetime warranty)
- H-sport lowering springs - lower car 1" (installed less than 6 months ago)
- H-sport rear sway bar

Interior:
- Two sets of rubber front mats - one 'S' and one 'MINI' logo. One boot mat. Three rear mats
- Console organizer (plus a spare)
- Glovebox organizer
- iPod cable connector
- Grocery bag holder

Exterior/Accessories:
- 16" MINI brand wheels with performance winter tires on their second season
- 17" Rota dark grey wheels
- Upgraded belly pan - better cooling and less chance of sucking things into the power steering fan
- Mini Madness V2 exhaust - installed less than 6 months ago
- Schroth quick-fit anti-submarine harnesses (2)

This car is tight, strong, and phenomenally nimble. Always maintained with premium materials.

I have ridden in and driven this car on track, it is a really nice set up, and very quick. Really clean as well. You know you want it..

I drove it at Monticello last year, and it really is an amazing car. So nimble!

buy early and often?

forgot to mention: of course it has a clean carfax.

And I truly am obsessive about cleaning and caring for my cars.
