Hi from South Carolina

Post by Mcs1990 »

I just want to say hi to everyone. I'm not a new member, but haven't logged onto this website since 2012. I was around with most of everyone didn't have a million posts yet....back in 2007 or so when I was in high school. Now I'm in graduate school going for a PhD.

Just thought I would drop in to see how this forum has evolved. My current car is a 6-speed Mini Cooper S. Let me know if any other members are located in South Carolina!

Welcome back. Several old-timers are still here, though I don't know how far back they go and if you remember them at all.

Welcome. I used to have a MINI Cooper (Base, not "S"). Amazing, bolted-to-rails cornering ability.

For some reason I thought that he used to be on here but is now using a different handle. I didn't even look at the date of the current one for whatever reason.

i vaguely remember seeing his handle in the past. looking through his past posts, he was actually fairly active back in the day (circa 2007-2008 or so) and apparently had a cute girlfriend (according to the pic i saw). 8)

WELCOME BACK!!!! :D

haha, everyone picks up a couple of ex's when you're super young ;). Heck, I didn't know that stuff was still on here.

Thanks for all the welcome backs! Cwat89- I'm located in Columbia, SC so it's about an hour away.
