Popular in Seattle.

We're visiting Seattle for the weekend, I'm noticing the F56 seems to be especially popular up here. I saw 5 within half a day of getting here. I've only noticed a few back home, which is in general crawling with MINIs.

Mmm, I've only seen one so far. There are tons of R53/56 though.

There's two MINI dealers in Seattle. I was there in April and saw quite a few MINI's.

Hi, I've seen two F56s on Queen Anne Hill in the last week or so.
Are you counting the Tacoma dealership as well as the Seattle one?

One was parked outside Trader Joe's on Galer Street, and the other was driving by the Cederberg Teahouse..

I live in Redmond (across the lake from Seattle) and I have yet to see one on the road. I went to Seattle MINI to check them out, and the MA said that they only have a few in stock because they sell them as fast as they can get them in. I guess they are afraid to cross the lake

Clearly I need to get out of West Seattle and visit Queen Anne when I'm in town next.

Definitely.
Be sure to pop into th eCederberg Teahouse and have a Roibos Espresso and a Bunny Chow. It's the new In-thing to do in Queen Anne!
Let us know though, so I can come and admire your car!!

I love tea and I love espresso, sounds like a match made in heaven to me.
We'll be over in a few weekends but we haven't decided if it's just for the day or not.
