Someone is flirting with my car at night

I get out to my car this morning to find a business card on the door w/ a note on the back... Lots of Minis in Hoboken and i can understand the mistake.

Maybe its just a marketing thing and he leaves them on all the cars.

"Honda Girl, it was great making eye contact with you last week. Look me up."

"Toyota Girl, it was ...."

If they had any kind of lucrative job there they would have a personal business card and not a generic one!

The other side was a regular card w/ his personalized info. It looks full time.

My email to him:


Got your card this morning on my Mini parked on 6th. Pretty sure you
got the wrong Mini since i would be more accurately described as a
"Mini Guy".

Sorry, good luck finding "Mini Girl"

-Will

His Response:
There was one across the street too, guess I guessed wrong. Ha thanks, will keep an out for her... Thanks Will.

Guy works for JP and he trolls for chicks while at stop lights...not to mention for a WEEK he was hunting neighborhoods looking for her MINI ......creepy indeed.

Flyinace, you should leave your number for "MiniGirl", you can easily break the ice by talking about Mr. JP Morgan

I went through a McDonald's Drive Thru (gross food I know hah) and there was an overweight unattractive girl "by the way I looooove your car, I've always wanted one...." and she's going on and on. By this time I've tuned her out haha. Anyways, I think even if you're not a car person, most people love the MINI because it's a MINI.

sounds like something i would have done back in the day... maybe not search for a week, but i would have left a note.. how else are you supposed to meet people these days? online or in a bar. leaving a simple note is harmless... if they get butthurt over not getting a response, then it turns creepy.

I left a note on a MINI at a local supermarket parking lot. Just said hi from another MINI owner and included my web site and email address. The owner turned out to be an artist doing really interesting dichroic glass sculpture.

I've left Business Cards on a couple of MINIs just to let them know about NAM!! I gave one to the Pizza Order taker too.

There are always so many MINIs around you-how would they know which MINI is yours?

Ill have to remember the business card thing. I usually just break into the car and lay in the backseat and breathe heavily. On second thought would the business card be a little to forward?
