Where's the MINI's!!

So I was over Orlando, FL. this past week (currently sitting and waiting for my flight back to Boston) and I was disappointed on the number of MINI's I saw. I stayed on a busy area too (International Drive) and I saw about 3 MINI's over the week. I was expecting a party of MINI's to welcome me to Disney...what happen?!? Where's all the MINI's?

Definitely bad area for the locals. I-Drive isn't a place that the locals frequent. There seems to be a lot of MINIs driving around town. Yesterday, I saw about 12 MINIs driving to work and back.

They're all in San Francisco and the Bay Area. I counted 13 (mostly parked) MINIs on my 6-mile drive home through the streets of SF this afternoon after work. (Didn't count on the way in). That's an average day for me. Sometimes I can only manage to count the driving MINIs, not the parked ones, because there are so many.

I see the most MINIs in the Windermere area and around the Mall at Millenia area...

Probably has to to with the area as there isn't a day that I don't see at least a half dozen or so MINIs where I live.

I-Drive = tourists. Tourists rent minivans, not MINIs. As Reyd1 said, I see a lot of MINIs in Windermere, as well as the Winter Park, Maitland area. All areas are non-tourist areas.
