AMVIV 2010 Video

Shot this at AMVIV this past weekend. Thought some of you would enjoy it. Mods, move this to the appropriate section if I posted in the wrong area.

This is the second Mini Cooper event I have attended, and now I think I am going to buy one now! What a great group of people.

I was thinking the exact same thing while watching it...what a dope! I've been to a few Mini events and I must say there are quite a few weird and dopey people that drive these cars. Also quite a few BAD drivers as well. Going through some hairy twisties and I've seen a leader of a group stop and sit at a stop sign on a blind corner and everyone is forced to slam on their brakes in mid turn....not good at all . Unfortunately not everyone can be perfect like me! I guess you're gonna get that whenever you get enough people together, regardless of what make of car. Mini's just seem to attract an odd crowd...maybe because people think their "cute" YUCK.

I feel stupid asking, but how do you keep just the lower lights in the xenons on like the last few cars in the video?

I just opened a new savings account dedicated to my future Mini.

I hope to have a 2003-2005 Mini S!
