12.31.04 Downtown Barrington on LakeCook Rd heading East. Red cabrio with white stripes. Lady driver. 2:45pm. I was in my G35C so you did not notice me. :smile:
1.1.04 ElkGrove/Itasca Black with White top MCS. 1:45pm.
Saw you turn into the Windham Hotel entrance off of Thorndale
(OhareElgin), then I saw you again on Devon heading East.
You didn't notice me, I was in my silver G35C, but I think you
glanced over.
Indy Blue and White MCS, East on Rt 176 last night, then heading North on St. Mary's Road. Behind you in my "clown car," as I left the black MCS at home to avoid the salt.
on Waukegan and Dempster in Morton Grove I have seen one WICKED MINI! It's PS/B with chrome rims. It's got "TANK 918" plates.
I pulled allong side it one time and we exchanged waves. Bald guy if I remember

Not more than 2 hrs after landing at Midway, early Saturday morning, I saw this MC parked on Halsted, south of 18th.
A few minutes earlier I also saw a convertible, southbound on Clark, somewhere north of Dearborn. Can't really say if it was BRG, DS, or Black, as it was pretty well salted, but it did have temporary paper "plates". (snapped a pic of that one too but it doesn't help)
Back at Midway on Monday, I saw what appeared to be the same Solid Gold/B I posted pic of above southbound on Cicero.
Pulled up next to a CR/W MC in my DS/B MCS this morning. We were both headed southbound on the Ryan just south of the Loop. I waved, but it was early in the morning and hard to see.
Also, yesterday I spotted a IB/W MC(S?) w/ white stripes parked on Harrison St in Oak Park.
I wholeheartedly agree with you about Chicago being kick-ass. It is definitely my kind of town!
It's why when I was there a couple of weeks ago I didn't mind the -15 degree wind chills to snap this pic down by the Lake.
What a great picture! I can't wait to get there and start discovering the city!! 2 weeks!! (Damn, that's coming up fast, thank god the movers are packing our stuff for us!! )
Packin up, and moving from Michigan to Chi-town next week. So excited. Living in a condo/loft in Wrigleyville, driving a Mini, working in the loop
Finally my Mini will feel at home in the city, vs. the vast open nothingness of Midland, MI... Tho the whole "carless" vs. "finances" debate has begun in my head. It reminds me of Braveheart in my head
Wow, did you folks get snow on Saturday. Even more than the West-side of Michigan. Please say this doesn't happen often there?
I spotted a few MINI's the first one I don't remember the color, but it was heading coming of sheridan onto oakton and took a right to keep on sheridan. I waved but once again no love.
another MINI i spotted was one today, feb 3, PW heading west on DAvis in evanston. I was right behind in a PW as well.
anyways, i'm gettin real sad with these MINI spottings, seems like no one ever ways. In all my MINI ownership i've only gotten 2 waves and seen more than 15 MINI's.
on ArlingtonHts Rd by Devon around 1:15pm-ish.
Im also selling a custom box that fits right in any mini cooper....again ill have pics as soon as i get my puter back.
